From my point of view of maintainer, I feel a stronger pressure to keep i386 support, because 1) it is the only 32-bit architecture tested on Salsa CI,
Caring too much about 32-bit architectures at this point may be considered a misfeature. As a reminder we have only 1.5 of those.
Should we ask Salsa CI people to remove that?
It gives the impression that deliverying as many packages aspossible is considered important.
This is definitely a misfeature.
(And I am happy to read opinions that agree that many i386 packages are actually not important).
(I assume this means "I was happy when I read the recent messages in this thread", not a request for such opinions)
Anyway, i386 autopkgtest failures in Sid eventually kick out the package in Testing from all architectures.
More reasons to drop those packages on i386.
- We disable i386 building for this package. All of these outcomes are extra work for the maintainer.
Yes, disabling should be made easier. -- WBR, wRAR
