Or just exclude that architecture i. e., list all archs but armel?
If you can’t fix the build, you don’t need to exclude the architecture — you
can ask for removal of the armel package in testing. That will allow the
package to migrate even if armel is missing.
This looks to me like a sound solution in this case. After all, opencpn is a
full-fledged GUI leaf package without reverse deps and zero users on armel
hardware. But then again, how is this done?
If by this you mean asking for a removal then reportbug release.debian.org
Better file an RM bugreport for unstable against ftp.debian.org, that
also gets the package removed from testing once its gone from unstable.
And your package no longer blocks transitions of its dependencies for
which it gets rebuilt in unstable.
