Hi Francois
I ran the following command:
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
and it returned nothing. I was hoping to see amd64
Then I tried
sudo dpkg --addāarchitecture amd64
Now retype:
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
Result: amd64
Then:
sudo apt install brave-browser
Result:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Finally:
I did my research on 10 best secure browsers:
https://www.wizcase.com/blog/private-browsers-and-better-online-privacy/#chromium
I found Chromium, it is already installed in Knoppix, so I will settle for this then. How ever I still like brave. It does not seem by the above that I will be able to install those dependencies without breaking my OS.
Francois Thank you for your helpfulness
