Why? The only reason I can find is #314988, and I can only paraphrase
Steve Langasek's words:

You do say:
> These architectures are no longer on the list to build for geomview.

but you don't list why, and as Steve said "The etch RC policy says that
packages must be supported on as many architectures as is reasonably
possible, this [having removed too many archs] is therefore an RC bug"

Did you contact the porters lists about this issue? What was their
response?
