This is a special section that does not relate to sweets directly and mentioned here only for recipe specification completeness. Using this section turns a recipe to some kind of meta-distribution spec file. The important things need to be kept in mind in that case:
* it is very limited, in comparing with regular GNU/Linux distribution spec files, by design;
* there are no any intentions to follow meta-distribution way;
* the major distribution way for sweets is using 0install, i.e., not using ''[Package]'' section, thus, native packages at all;
* this section was introduced only for cases when having native packages makes sense, e.g., for Live Sugar distributions or LTSP.
