I agree.

I need to understand how to decide if a package is machine or architectue 
specific. So PLEASE anybody out there give me some hints/links:

1.  What pitfalls are to expect making a package machine specific which is 
architecture specific?
2.  How do you decide if a package is machine/architecture specific? For 
example clutter: clutter itself is machine specific because it configures 
against machine specific gl/gles causing different 
builds - OK. What about the dependent: clutter-box2d is machine dependent / 
clutter-gst, clutter-gtk is not. What caused the different handling?
3.  This question is also related (correct me if I am wrong - maybe I haven't 
got the basic point): The reason for different handling machine/architecture is 
to reuse as much as possible in case 
you have more than one machine of same architecture. For clutter: configure 
decides according to the include files it finds in tmp/sysroot/<arch>/.. to 
build against gl or gles. What happens in 
case we have two machines of same architecture: one with gl only / the other 
gl/gles (e.g different OMAPs). What happens if we first build the gles-machine 
and then the gl-only: Does the 
second get gles too or what mechanisms am I missing?
