The IRC conversation below might shed some light on this.
(It has some extraneous and/or embarrassing messages filtered out.)
TL;DR: Ron would be happy to entertain patches that enable multiarch on
supporting releases if they:
* still build working packages for Squeeze
* don't replace the build system
(Note: You're supposed to TEST the Squeeze packages.)
[talking about how ron wants to keep it building on squeeze pending a
new upstream release.]
<ron> that's the other option I haven't actually looked at, a patch that
does work for both.
<ron> again partly because I figured we'd have a release before now.
<sgran> markos: tell you what, why don't you come up with a patch based on
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=81;filename=opus-multiarch.diff;att=1;bug=674467
that only conditionally enables multiarch
<sgran> that seems to satisfy ron's reservations about making backports
hard
<ron> what sgran said.
<sgran> then this can probably be settled instead of having people jump
up and down about it
<sgran> if ron still doesn't want to upload at that point, then I think
it could be argued fairly convincingly that he's being
obstructionist and you can get upset and go further
<sgran> but I assume he would be happy to proceed with an upload, given
a patch that worked
<ron> we have a hard enough time getting people not to use old codec
versions and then complain they Aren't As Good As X. I don't want
to make that problem any worse than it already is.
<ron> yes, if someone tests a patch to do that, that covers what I
consider the current blocker.
