since last week, I got some issues when attempting to update the system.

This part would have been useful. You didn't show what command you were running or the list of packages it wanted to install.

You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'.

This is the typical problem (the rest of the packages in the list that I looked at were the same). The 64-bit package that's installed is older than the 32-bit package you're trying to install. Make sure your system is fully up-to-date before trying something like this. When you have multi-lib packages, both versions have to be exactly the same.
