As dumb as you or I might think it, i386 in Debian needs to support non-SSE hardware. It sounds like you rather want to drop i386 support for the package, if upstream's idea of i386 doesn't match Debian's. That's what I did with darktable (that case was maybe more clear as upstream also felt 32bits was unsuppportable). d
