In most cases you would not care about the removed support for i386. You
would care about removed support for your GPU - you will get notified
about this (news (always) and debconf (if legacy hardware present) and
that you need to switch to the legacy driver.
amd64 + foreign arch i386 is not (yet) part of our test matrix ...

Could someone please define the minimal set of packages to be installed
for a working optimus setup, as there is probably no metapackage
covering that. I.e. something that I can run in a minimal chroot to test
upgrades afterwards. I need this for both stretch and buster. (And an
upgrade from stretch usually should result in the buster set being
installed.)

e.g.

stretch# apt-get install --install-recommends bumblebee-nvidia


Thanks
