I am at a loss to understand why anything is trying to install wine32
here.

I looked in:

* debian/tests/control in the gnupg2 source tree.

  One test, of gpgv-win32.  Depends on gpgv-win32, gnupg2,

* debian/control

  gpg-win32 Suggests wine.  No stronger dependency apparent.

* https://packages.debian.org/sid/gpgv-win32

  One dependency: the Suggests on wine.

* ci.d.n "test log" and "test artifacts" from 2018-07-09 04:35:19 UTC.

  The artifacts.tar.gz contains only these hits for wine:
     $ zgrep wine *
     gpgv-win32-stderr.gz:dpkg-query: package 'wine32' is not installed and no information is available
     gpgv-win32-stdout.gz: wine32:i386 : Depends: libc6:i386 (>= 2.17) but it is not going to be installed
     gpgv-win32-stdout.gz:               Depends: libwine:i386 (= 3.0.2-1) but it is not going to be installed
     $

  The test log is no more informative.

Ian.
