Public bug reported:
Some tests in d/t/control are not meant to be run on non-amd64 architectures.
The test script tries to detect this and skip them:
arch = platform.machine()
if sys.argv[1].startswith('isa_') and arch == 'x86_64':
print("Skipping {} test for {} architecture".format(sys.argv[1], arch))
else:
...
In eoan, at some point during the development cycle, the VM running i386 tests
is actually on an amd64 kernel:
"""
...
-name adt-eoan-i386-python-pyeclib-20191014-091043 --image

"""
In such an environment, platform.machine() will return "x86_64", and the test
will be run, but fail:

It's probably best to use "dpkg --architecture" for this check.
