If figured it out myself.



I run $ apt-config dump|grep Archit
and it gave



APT::Architecture "amd64";
APT::Architectures "";
APT::Architectures:: "amd64";


And I fixed it with running:



$ sudo -s
# echo "foreign-architecture i386" > /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch
# apt-get update


And then updating packages.
