A very good idea.
It'd be particularly nice if we could install native -devel
packages
into each toolchain's sysroot
I don't think installing packages of a foreign arch is easy w/o an
emulator. You have scriptlets (%post and friends) that need to run on
the target arch's platform. E.g. even installing glibc calls
/usr/sbin/glibc_post_upgrade.* which would have to be emulated.
-devel usually has no scriplets, but the pulled in main lib package
will at the very least want to call ldconfig.
