Since then, the test was hinted and is a known failure now, not
blocking the migration anymore. I took a look in any case, and
launching a focal/i386 container and running that test works just
fine, for now (since lxc still has focal/i386 images). But I spotted
this in the autopkgtest log:

autopkgtest [19:05:04]: testbed running kernel: Linux 5.3.0-24-generic
#26-Ubuntu SMP Thu Nov 14 01:33:18 UTC 2019
autopkgtest [19:05:04]: testbed dpkg architecture: amd64
autopkgtest [19:05:04]: testbed target architecture: i386

I'll re-read Steve's series of emails about how these tests are run.
The actual failure was a dependency problem involving amd64 packages,
and this is supposed to be an i386 test run, so maybe something is
wrong in how the environment is setup to run these i386 tests without
a base i386 image.
