[Debian-med-packaging] pbseqlib testing migration

[Afif Elghraoui]

I'd like to follow-up on this. I will try for an executive summary in
case my original message was too long:

* pbseqlib builds three arch:any libraries as well as the arch:all
libpbseq-dev that depends on all of their -dev packages

* pbseqlib has a new build dependency that does not build on 32-bit
architectures (all old pbseqlib binaries have already been removed)

* the un-installability of libpbseq-dev on i386 is preventing testing
migration.

I believe this needs a force-hint. This is also somewhat urgent because
some rdeps with fixed RC bugs cannot migrate without this one going first.

Thanks and regards
Afif
