Er, how many packages are we talking about here?
We have in the past kept multiple versions available when they do not
conflict and are not very compatible (ie emacs) but if we are talking
about 50 packages...
Is it possible to be more fine grained and maybe only have duplicates of
packages that are not sufficiently compatible?
Even so, what sort of implications are there for having both installed at
once?
