Sorry, in fact, no. bison and flex are supposed to be installed on the
developer machine, as checked by toolchain/dependencies/dependencies.sh.

Therefore, for coherency, we should:

 * Remove the host-flex package;

 * Remove all the dependencies on host-flex (gob2, ipsec-tools, radvd,
   webkit)

Unless of course we decide not to have bison/flex as host requirements,
or if we need them for some reason (like building the package/config
lexer + parser), and still want to build our own versions for the
general case (so that we know which flex/bison versions are being used,
providing more guarantees over build success).

Whichever the decision is, it requires discussion.
