Depends on how the dependency is used. If it's an architecture-specific
library that is linked against, which seems likely from the name in this
case, then yes, you should also disable universal in the dependent.
Otherwise users will just get an arch mismatch error when they try it.

If the dependency just provided a command which was executed by the
dependent in a separate process, then the archs wouldn't need to match
and you could put it in depends_skip_archcheck and leave universal enabled.
