That normally means that apt is seeing libc6 2.24-7 as available on
amd64 and 2.24-5 as available on i386 and is refusing to install the
combination, as they're different versions and libc6 is marked
Multi-Arch:same.

-7 was uploaded a little over 10 hours ago. Looking at the dak log that
would make sense in terms of what you're seeing - the amd64 build of -7
made it into the 0152UTC dinstall by a few minutes, so would have been
available on mirrors when you filed this report, with the i386 build
being part of the subsequent 0752 dinstall.
