Do we need to build all packages archictures when PKGARCH:=all?

[pmelange]

Currently we build the feed for all architectures. But for the Falter feed almost all the packages are arch-independant (PKGARCH:=all). Currently there is only one package which is really compiled (falter-berlin-tunneldigger).

Would it make sense to build the PKGARCH:=all packages just once and copy the generated ipk files to all architechtures and also to build just the tunneldigger for each arch separately?

I like that idea pretty much. That might speed up the build process by magnitudes. Though we'd need to handle the generation of the Packages.gz file somehow seperately, right?

[pmelange]

I guess they would have to be generated by hand somehow. I don't really know much about it
