>From Steve's email:
"""
Many tests need changes to annotate their dependencies as to whether they
need a version of the package that matches the target arch or not. In the
case of bind9, it looks like the problematic dependency chain is bind9 ->
bind9utils -> python3.
python3 is Multi-Arch: allowed, which means that packages which only use it
as an interpreter can /in theory/ depend on python3:any instead of on
python3 to declare that they're fine with the interpreter being from a
different arch. But while dh-python correctly gives bind9utils a dependency
on python3:any, there is also a hard-coded dependency in debian/control on
'python3', which forces the selection of the i386 python3, which is not
cross-installable.
So please fix bind9utils to drop this hard-coded dependency on python3.
