The fix for this package would probably to stop building the webkit-dependant packages on s390x, but keep other plugins there.

If you want to do that, you can: any future upload of geany-plugins that successfully builds on the s390x buildd will re-introduce the subset of its binary packages that are still built.

I suggested complete removal from s390x because geany-plugins is a leaf package (nothing depends on it), and I didn't want to impose extra time-sensitive work on maintainers of leaf packages like this for the benefit of a type of machine that probably neither of us will ever see!

The change you'd need would look something like this:

As mentioned on the list I'm not sure how relevant those packages are on s390x, but Geany being an IDE I could imagine someone running it on the target architecture

I don't think owners of room-sized mainframes generally run any sort of GUI on them at all, development tool or otherwise.
