Dear people, autopkgtests need python3-guestfs which is not available on 32bit archs anymore, filing this as serious because it blocks migration to forky. (src:libguestfs was uploaded on March 28th and dropped support for 32bit architectures, #1131838) diffoscope's d/control already limits the guestsfs on 64bit archs, but d/tests/control still require it for all archs. So I tried to do what d/test/control says to recreate it, but debian/tests/control.tmp was never created. (But I just tried to do this on a trixie system and in a sid schroot, so maybe thats why this failed and this is certainly why I dont file an additional bug about this.)
