Indeed. xdeb currently only downloads the native architecture Package file and uses that for dependency-tree construction and resolution (when not using local package sources). This is of course wrong as soon as there is any variance between architectures (and there is, plenty). It needs to learn to download and use the target architecture dependency tree (as apt-cross has done for years, and xapt does). I intend to re-implement the relevant apt-cross functionality in xdeb to fix this problem, but it's not a trivial task.
