Dear maintainers,

In Ubuntu, we are in the process of moving the i386 architecture to a
compatibility-only layer on amd64, and therefore we are also moving our
autopkgtest infrastructure to test i386 binaries in a cross-environment.

This requires changes to some tests so that they are cross-aware and can do
the right thing.

The bubblewrap tests currently fail in this environment, because they try to
install test dependencies for the target architecture rather than for the
host architecture.  The attached patch allows the dependencies to be
satisfied using the host versions of various core packages, letting the i386
tests successfully run on an amd64 host.

Note that upstream autopkgtest doesn't currently set DEB_HOST_ARCH so this
is a complete no-op in Debian for the moment.  Support for cross-testing in
autopkgtest is currently awaiting review at
https://salsa.debian.org/ci-team/autopkgtest/merge_requests/69 and once
landed, will still have no effect unless autopkgtest is invoked with a '-a'
option.  So this change should be safe to land in your package despite this
not being upstream in autopkgtest.

Thanks for considering,
