[the debian build daemon logs of
gpgme 1.12.0](https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=gpgme1.0&ver=1.12.0-1&suite=sid) show that the 32-bit architectures are failing, but the 64-bit architectures are successful.
Looking at [the armhf](https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gpgme1.0&arch=armhf&ver=1.12.0-1&stamp=1539734290&raw=0) and [i386](https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gpgme1.0&arch=i386&ver=1.12.0-1&stamp=1539733106&raw=0) buildd logs, it appears that the problem is with `t-callbacks.py` in the python bindings.
one example error message is:
```
