Hello!

Please remove the binaries built from src:badger for all 32bit archs.

The binary package names are:
badge
golang-github-dgraph-io-badger-dev


The (release) archs that should get targeted for removal are:
armel
armhf
i386


Extended removal reason:

In 2.0.1-4 I included a bunch of patches that made badger not only build
but also pass its own testsuite on 32bit architectures. This was a
mistake on my side, because I later realized that the trivial patches
I created doesn't actually make badger practically usable on 32bit
archs - as badger is usually built into another application and if that
application does any memory allocations then badger will not work.
A non-trivial amount of work is needed to accomplish that and I
just don't have the time needed to invest in that work and it seems
upstream doesn't currently have interest in this either at the moment
(either internally or from external contributors).


Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
