Hi Ulf,
sorry for the late answer. You've got an uncommon setup, not sure if it
is "valid" because I'd expect a foreign-architecture on a system to just
work.
I'm not totally sure if wineserver64 (a 64-bit program) not running on a
32-bit system with "some" 64-bit parts is a bug. Maybe this depends on
the specifics of your system, but I'd say not-a-bug.
The issue of a broken system (bug 1648278), or your original problem,
needs fixing, but I don't think we should workaround this in any way in
the Wine packaging. The Wine packaging defaults to support "everything"
if available. If you've got both 32- and 64-bit enabled the default is
to support both, which works perfectly on usual (non-broken) systems.
If you want another setup you can just uninstall e.g. wine32 or wine64,
since they are only recommended by wine.
Finally AFAIK there is no possibility to handle foreign architecture
separately in the packaging. The best fix to get a pure 32-bit Wine
installation might be to make "wine" an architecture-dependent package
(arch:any) instead of arch:all, but I don't really see the need to do
so.
Therefore I'm tagging this report as "opinion".
