I'm not aware of one.

The refusal to build kernel udebs is #778212, the last wave of patches
(pretty outdated now) is tracked by an usertag:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=debian-x32@lists.debian.org;tag=di-x32
(not worth looking at until they're at least updated to the current d-i).

raspberries, 0.4kg sugar; put into a big jar for 1 month.  Filter out and
throw away the fruits (can dump them into a cake, etc), let the drink age
at least 3-6 months.
