But simply replacing all occurrences of "x86_64" with "*" does not
work. It though would be a start if it would work.

Just another thought on this topic:

While having wildcards would be nice, there's probably an easier
because already implemented way:

Test description files ("desc") know about a field "Test-Architecure":

~/lintian/lintian → find t/recipes/checks -name desc | xargs fgrep amd64
t/recipes/checks/fields/multi-arch/fields-multi-arch-same-package-has-arch-specific-overrides/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: amd64
t/recipes/checks/debian/lintian-overrides/mystery/fields-multi-arch-same-package-has-arch-specific-overrides/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: amd64
t/recipes/checks/debian/lintian-overrides/restricted/amd64-on-arch-all/eval/desc:Testname: amd64-on-arch-all
t/recipes/checks/debian/lintian-overrides/restricted/fields-multi-arch-same-package-has-arch-specific-overrides/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: amd64
t/recipes/checks/debian/shlibs/binaries-multiarch/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: i386 amd64
t/recipes/checks/files/architecture/binaries-multiarch/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: i386 amd64
t/recipes/checks/files/architecture/binaries-multiarch-wrong-dir/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: i386 amd64
t/recipes/checks/binaries/corrupted/binaries-from-other-arch/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: amd64 i386
t/recipes/checks/binaries/static/binaries-from-other-arch/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: amd64 i386
t/recipes/checks/binaries/architecture/other/binaries-from-other-arch/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: amd64 i386
t/recipes/checks/binaries/hardening/binaries-hardening/eval/desc:Test-Architectures: amd64 i386 armhf arm64

So we hopefully just need to add the currently on non-amd64 failing
tests to sport a "Test-Architectures: amd64" in their desc file.
