Well, for one thing, Ubuntu 24.04 got to be the first big Debian-based release after 64-bit time_t migration, and they got rid of backwards-compatible package names early. I suppose removing hundreds of libraries, including heavily dependent on, to install them from new packages (with `t64`) in proper order can cause a lot of problems on non-trivial configurations.
Existing binary code should work (unless it interfaces with 32-bit code in some affected way), but external packages need to include new dependencies.
