No, the problem is at runtime: Debian is a binary distro, and thus,
packages can get built and/or used on either ARAnyM, Amiga, Atari,
Macintosh, and in theory VME machines, and maybe Q40/Q60, and maybe
UAE (Amiga emulator).

<igli> just about the worst way you could do something like that, afaic.
<igli> it's like anti-design.  <mirabilos> that too… may I quote you on that?
<igli> sure, tho i doubt anyone will listen ;)
