Ia32-libs is usualy build from testing for reasons of keeping the
testing versions in sync. Otherwise ia32-libs could migrate to testing
before the packages it was build from do. Did I mention that ia32-libs
is hideous?
The reason for it to be squeeze (instead of the testing alias) is so
that security updates in stable will not accidentally pull in testing
packages. For a new unstable build this has to be changed to wheezy now.
I will take a look and try to do the required changes soon.
