I am not sure, but #306976 might occur on i386 too. I have not enough
experience with debian-installer to say anything definite about the
real importance of that bug. I just know for certain that it prevents
building debian-installer on amd64 unless a patch is applied which
's/libdevmapper1.00/libdevmapper1.01/' in build/pkg-lists/monolithic/common.
I did not check it, but it looks like the same may happen on i386.

I will try to fix the list according to your suggestions and post it 
to debian-devel, thanks.
