In the case of librime, the rdeps (fcitx-rime and ibus-rime) have never been
built on armel. So you can ask for the removal of the outdated librime armel
binaries (through a bug against ftp.debian.org) and then librime would be able
to migrate. And when the armel issue is fixed and librime builds there, those
binaries will migrate automatically.

Or you can make librime build on armel, like you mentioned in another mail. That
would of course be preferred.
