Hi David,

it's been a while like that, the last releases with i386 on apt.pg.
were Debian buster (10) and Ubuntu bionic (18.04)

Ubuntu degraded i386 to an "extra architecture without kernel and
installer" a while ago, yes.

That said, I'm still keeping it enabled on apt.pg.o as a build target
on Debian sid because even if I'm not doing that, I'll get the same
surprises after uploading to Debian. Better catch that early.
