The shadow recipe is a 'PACKAGE_ARCH = "${MACHINE_ARCH}"' recipe. This
makes all recipes that inherit useradd depend on shadow which will
depend on the MACHINE being built for. Ideally, we just need a way to
ensure these packages are deployed - we don't want them to effect
signatures.

Can you suggest a better fix here? Some
bb.exec_func("shadow:do_populate_sysroot") or something equivalent?
