Unfortunately I skipped this tag intentionally. The problem is that Erlang by
default requires that all libraries must be installed into
%{_libdir}/erlang/lib which is arch-dependent. Thus all packages are has to be
marked as such even if they doesn't actually contain any arch-dependent
binaries.

I'm really sorry - I should have write Erlang Review but I didn't have much
time for that. This is on my TODO list and I promise I'll pay my technical
depth one day.

Technically speaking it's possible to explicitly set additional directories for
Erlang VM to search for libraries in, but that's a huge and error-prone task (I
plan to do it as well but I'm thinking in terms of Fedora 19 or even Fedora
20).
