Of course one could argue that there is a bug in the OE recipes metadata
rather than the distro, since the pulseaudio recipes are known broken
for certain architectures -- however they don't contain any blacklisting
or whitelisting except for om-gta01/om-gta02 which I added when I became
aware of the problem. Antonio, lets just blacklist the broken versions
for the machines you're interested in.
