Comment (by boklm):

 Replying to [comment:6 gk]:
 > The 32bit situation for Linux looks bleak. BUT: I thought we should
 start soon with #26323 anyway. I think this bug is a reason to start now-
 ish with that effort. I guess we could try to squeeze it into 8.5. boklm:
 what do you think?

 Yes, I think it should be possible to do #26323 soon.

 The new apt package is not available yet for i386 at this time:
 http://deb.freexian.com/extended-lts/pool/main/a/apt/

 However maybe they will add it later as looking at the file modification
 time it seems it is not the first time that the i386 package comes later.
 Otherwise we can maybe rebuild the package ourself.

 I started working on a patch installing the apt updated packages into the
 containers:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/boklm/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_29158_v3&id=4672030e7308f852836092ddcfdce76ae90f797b

 It is currently installing the packages on stretch too, however since
 yesterday they made a stretch point release, so it should not be needed
 anymore (but maybe we can add a check to verify that the correct version
 was installed).
