When it's a public library, yes, but here it's an internal library so

In this case this isn't really useful since it's an internal library.

And that becomes tricky to do when you have your configuration file in
the lib package. So yes, having a separate (arch:all) package for the
etc file, that the lib depends on, does make sense.

(and we should be doing the same about librhvoice-core7)
