@@ -905,6 +905,10 @@ captures_kernel_variant:
     Similar to captures_kernel_version, but specifically refers to capturing
     x86_64 vs i686. This can (currently) happen when testing the i386
     architecture as we use a 64-bit kernel with a 32-bit Debian userland.
+    .
+    Notably, we do not use `linux32` to emulate the 32 bit personality when
+    running those builds, as normally this hides packages that are making use of
+    `uname` to detect the host architecture when they really should not.
