They are not blocked at all. Nothing prevent us from using and "Arch:"
field with all the supported architectures, and in fact, that was the
plan from one of the maintainers:

Well, I do, and I reported it to track the fact that I could not build
the package on amd64, which is what everybody does: Report bugs to
keep track of things that should not happen.

If you don't want to track this personally, it's fine, but that's not
an excuse to deprive others from doing so. Also, it seems as closing
the bug was your way of making the bug not to be RC. That's extremely
annoying.

Thanks.
