It is built with default, machine independent configuration options. But then I want to add a .bbappend to it, which add some configuration options that make it machine dependent (imagine something like --device=beagleboard). I then add PACKAGE_ARCH=${MACHINE_ARCH} to the .bbappend file. Is this actually okay to do? Or does it break something?
