[Regression Potential] Low. The new get_system_architecture() function is very small, and replaces dpkg-architecture for our use-case. _______ In bug 1875339, a depends on dpkg-dev was added. This is pulling in all of build-essential on upgrades (or just binutils and make and patch if you pass --no-install-recommends). This needs to be reverted and fixed differently.
