Bug#908298: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0: FTBFS on i386: Directory $'/<<BUILDDIR>>/gdk-pixbuf-2.38.0+dfsg/obj-i386-linux-gnu' does not seem to be a Meson build directory.

Source: gdk-pixbuf
Version: 2.38.0+dfsg-2
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs

The attempt to fix the test timeouts on slow arches in 2.38.0+dfsg-2 has
introduced a new FTBFS problem on i386[1]:

,----
|    debian/rules override_dh_auto_test
| make[1]: Entering directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/gdk-pixbuf-2.38.0+dfsg'
| # on slow arches the "slow" tests take longer than the timeout allowed
| # by upstream; allow even more time (-t is a multipiler)
| meson test -C /<<BUILDDIR>>/gdk-pixbuf-2.38.0+dfsg/obj-i386-linux-gnu -t 5
| Only ninja backend is supported to rebuild tests before running them.
| Meson test encountered an error:

Will send a patch as soon as I have the bug number.
