 I suspect this is a manifestation of https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-

The bug was long ago fixed, but the nature of the bug would mean re-
bootstrapping is needed, i'm not sure if there still exists a ubuntu
archive for 32-bit powerpc and if-so who controls it. There certainly
doesn't seem to be any mention of 32-bit powerpc on launchpad for recent
releases.

If you just want to fix the problem locally, then you may be able to use
the 3.0.0+dfsg-8 packages from snapshot.debian.org
