Installing libpng12 64-bit on Debian 12 (bookworm) 64-bit gives a multiarch-support pre-dependency error when installing Stata 16

I'm trying to install [Stata 16](https://www.stata.com/) on Debian 12 "bookworm". Stata requires libpng12, and unfortunately, the libpng in the repositories (version 16) doesn't fulfill the dependency. I've downloaded the libpng12 deb package, but when I try to install it, I get this error message about multiarch support

dpkg: regarding libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb containing libpng12-0:amd64, pre-dependency problem:
 libpng12-0 pre-depends on multiarch-support
  multiarch-support is not installed.

dpkg: error processing archive libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb (--install):
 pre-dependency problem - not installing libpng12-0:amd64
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libpng12-0_1.2.50-2+deb8u3_amd64.deb

Both my OS and the package are 64-bit, so I'm not sure why multiarch-support is needed here. I ran dpkg --print-architecture and it says amd64. I thought the current version of dpkg [already had multiarch support](https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/HOWTO) . How do I get this package installed?
