Hi Jason,Thanks for packaging this! However there's no need to limit it, in fact it's strongly recommended not to. ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM is really only for when software can never possibly function on some platforms (for example where we re-package binaries such as JDKs).
It's actually really helpful when software shows up in bulk builds even if it is missing platform support as it gives people an idea of what needs to be done, as well as a reminder that it needs doing at some point. Packages that are hidden tend to just stay broken for years as there's no visibility.
