Thanks for being persistent. It made my work a lot easier. I totally
agree with you. I will remove the xdeb check in the near future.

I will only keep the test, which is slightly different from
t/tags/checks/binaries/binaries-from-other-arch. It actually builds a
cross-binary, even if the arch-dependent build prerequisite is not in
d/control (so our Gitlab CI is not burdened all the time).

That table was apparently imported from xdeb at some point.

Kind regards
