That may only be the start of the problems. The source code has no
concept of anything other than x86, it builds on no architectures other
than amd64. Is there any upstream interest in architectures other than
amd64? Is there a use case for the package on architectures other than
amd64?

A workaround might not be enough - this package could need upstream
porting and maintenance.
