Tired of waiting for the distro owners to fix it, I forced the
overwrite, which solved the issue and made apt is usable again:

`sudo dpkg --configure --force-overwrite -a`

Alternatively:

`sudo apt -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" --fix-broken install`

This issue seem to be related from the conflict between the OpenJDK and
Oracle's own DEB distributions for Focal, especially if you've used the
webupd8 PPA in the past. There are more details on this bug report -

  I think the reason is in difference of
  /etc/java-8-openjdk/security/java.security file in 32-bit and 64-bit
  package. String org.GNOME.Accessibility.,\ exists in 64-bit package,
  but doesn`t exist in 32-bit package.
