Why is that?

I don't think we need to include native libaries in the packages at all. I
figure that end users would want qvm files, and developers would like to
make debug builds for testing purposes. Since developers should be able to
compile everything from source, who needs a debug binary that someone else
built?

Is this necessary either (see above)?
