First, since multiple `Section: dbg` feeds may be downloaded and requiring users to architecture-qualify such packages would be undesirable, such packages could be -installed instead via `opkg -a amd64-linux-glibc foo-dbg`. Similarly, `Section: -libdev` packages as build dependencies could be automatically installed for the -host architecture by prokit supplying an appropriate `-a` option, allowing +installed instead via `opkg -a amd64-linux-glibc foo-dbg` or even simply `opkg +install foo-dbg` for the native architecture.
