Ok, thanks Adrian. I fixed forensics-all, affected by this change.

There is no FTBFS:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=nmapsi4

There are plenty of packages in the archive whose build dependencies 
cannot be fulfilled on all release architectures.

This is not a problem.

This would actually make things worse, since manual maintainance of such 
architecture lists is extra effort.

Imagine qtwebengine5-dev gains support for a new architecture like riscv64.

With "Architecture: any" all packages that directly or indirectly build 
depend on qtwebengine5-dev will automatically be built as soon as
qtwebengine5-dev is available on this architecture.

With an explicit architecture list bugs would have to be filed and 
manual uploads made for every single of these packages.

Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Dear Maintainer,

nmapsi4 fails to build from source in several architectures since 0.5~alpha2-1
revision.

nmapsi4 build depends of qtwebengine5-dev. Since 5.9.1+dfsg-5 revision, released
in 30 Sep 2017, qtwebengine5-dev is only available for amd64, arm64, armhf, i386
and mipsel. Consequently, now nmapsi4 FTBFS in armel, mips64el, ppc64el, s390x,
alpha, hppa, hurd-i386, ia64, m68k, powerpc, ppc64, riscv64, sh4, sparc64 and
x32.

The following patch fixes the FTBFS in nmapsi4:
