The last Debian that supports ppc32 was Debian 8:

"Debian on 32-bit PowerPC (powerpc)
It first became an official release architecture with Debian GNU/Linux 2.2
(potato) and had retained that status until the publication of Debian 9
(stretch).
The last supported release for 32-bit PowerPC is Debian 8 (jessie)"
It has been moved out of general support but remains in ports[1].
I was able to install a debian sid chroot with this today[2].
which should be good enough to continue compile-testing.
And Mark has hardware for actual testing. Given that almost
all of the code overlaps with ppc64, I'm ok keeping it now.
