We do not have any chance to fix the test for i386 since the package is
lacking a dependency there and thus does not install.  We cannot even
add some `if i386 exit 0` thingy in the test command since the test is
not even running this.  So the ball to prevent this is at debci team
(as I tried to explain on debian-devel[1] in some other context but its
the same here).

Kind regards
