    Dear developers and users,
    Please, is it still possible to add The I386 architecture by typing as Root dpkg --add-architecture I386 while working with debian-12.11.0? Unfortunately, I have chosen on Debian repository from our country Czech Republic and I have got warning from apt that this repository does not support I386 architecture.
    So please. Did you decided to stop distribution of I386 packages? Or is it
    AN individual decision from The some repositories maintainers?

    At http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/bookworm/main/binary-i386/
    is a `Release` file from 2025-05-17.

    And that May 17th date on the `Release` file do I relate to the 12.11.0 release.
    Please fact check me.


    I Am need to use The I386 repository to be able to work with The 32 Bit Windows Apps while using Wine.
    I love some special audio games for visually impaired users which have compiled by using 32 Bit compilers.
    I will try to use The default repository from An prepared Debian live CD to find out, if I386 packages can be added from The default Debian repository.

    Yes, tell about other repositories with debian/dists/bookworm/main/binary-i386/ directories. And put further effort in what is important to you.

    The architecture's name is "i386" with a lowercase "i".
