Trouble Installing libxp6 and multi-arch-support

Question

I am following this guide, but I have run into some difficulties at step 11. When I type

sudo apt-get install ./libxp6_1.0.2-2_amd64.deb

I get

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'libxp6' instead of './libxp6_1.0.2-2_amd64.deb'
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libxp6 : PreDepends: multiarch-support but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

libxp6 and multiarch-support are what seem to be giving me difficulties. Searching on the web has given me a little, but not enough to install. Even the Ubuntu package website isn't helping. Any help would be appreciated.

Solution

Then you have to install multiarch-support package from 18.04 LTS first with

cd ~/Downloads
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/multiarch-support_2.27-3ubuntu1_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install ./multiarch-support_2.27-3ubuntu1_amd64.deb

and continue to follow the guide.

In step 12 where it says "sudo updated" is that a typo? The response I am getting is "sudo: updated: command not found" Deleting the d gives the same thing.

The sudo updated maybe a typo. Do not know what they really mean.
