We need some more information here. How are you trying to install it? From what I can gather you just need to install libXmu6 as well.– David WrightJul 4, 2017 at 8:13

Instead of installing it via sudo apt-get install libXmu6:i386 you need to enter sudo apt-get install libxmu6.
Another tip: you can use aptitude for things like this. Install aptitude via sudo apt-get install aptitude and then use aptitude to look up possible package matches using: aptitude search libXmu6 and then install them via sudo apt-get install <whatever_package_you_found>
