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:
  emacs-nox : Depends: emacs-bin-common (= 1:28.2+1-3) but it is not
going to be installed
              Depends: emacs-common (= 1:28.2+1-3) but it is not going
to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Does anyone know how to install emacs-nox on this machine?

You have run into a situation that I have decribed in this older mailing list
post on the debian-sparc mailing list in detail [1].

The issue will be resolved once I have fixed the build failure (FTBFS) of the
subversion package on m68k.

In the meantime, you can fetch the emacs-common package in the matching version
from snapshot.debian.org [2].
