I believe you that it's possible, however reading the man page and tried
several things got me nowhere. Can you tell me how to simulate this
command line with apt-ftparchive generate ?
        apt-ftparchive -o Tree::ExtraOverride=../overrides.extra \
	packages pool/ ../overrides >> $file
				
(of course the ExtraOverride parameter here doesn't work it's just to
let you know that I need it)
