Bug Description

The p7zip:i386 and p7zip-full:i386 packages are missing in focal.

The result is that debhelper in focal-backports cannot be used to build i386 packages. It depends on debugedit:i386, which is missing, because p7zip-full:i386 is a build dependency.

Please apply this patch to focal. It adds the "Multiarch: foreign" field to both binary packages in the control file.

that's hardly the reason that debhelper/focal-backports is uninstallable on i386.

Remember that Multi-Arch fields are used for multi-arch installations, that are irrelevant for things like native builds, and are totally unused in buildds and such.
