A stable release has happened and we do not need the Pre-Depends any more.

Had you been using debhelper AND the ${misc:Pre-Depends} variable, you
would not be getting this warning.  That is all there is too it.

We will look into a different wording (patches welcome).  Mean while,
please drop the Pre-Depends on multiarch-support.

Thanks,
