But the point here is that packages in unstable should be in principle
releasable. Which is not the case for a office suite failing even simple
tasks. And unstable isn't a world on it's own, packages from there go to
testing and into a stable release. For that I would need to disable amd64
anyway so it makes no sense to enable it in the first place unless it works.

Rene
