It is fine that poppler qt5 apps switch to poppler qt6. I do not see
any need for those apps to built on i386 since i386 is not intended to
be a full, directly installable desktop architecture in the next
stable Debian release. I do not see any usecase for okular i386 to be
available on an amd64 system.

Please read https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2023/12/msg00003.html
if you have not already.

Thank you,
