reason for removal of zeroc-ice on armhf and arm64.



I recently became aware that mumble's build-dependencies were no longer
satisfiable on armhf due to a missing zeroc-ice. I looked at the build
logs for zeroc-ice and all were green. So I looked at the removal log
and found the following.

Removed the following packages from unstable:

libzeroc-ice-dev |  3.7.8-2.1 | arm64, armhf

------------------- Reason -------------------
RoQA; openjfx no longer builds on arm64 and armhf, build-depends not available

This strikes me as strange in a couple of ways.

1. The only relationships of zeroc-ice to openjfx are in build-depends-indep
   and in the binary dependencies of an arch all package. Afaict it is perfectly
   normal for build-depends-indep and the binary dependencies of arch all
   packages to only be satisfiable on a subset of the architectures where
2. Only one of the two binaries from the mumble source package was removed.

Was this removal just a mistake? or was there a reason behind it that I am not
seeing?
