Well, I think the question is more of whether it's acceptable to
dynamically generate an overrides file that will be different on every
architecture.

If it is indeed allowed, I think I could just use an expression such
as

find /usr/lib/rep -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d \! -name `dpkg --status rep | grep '^Version:' | sed -e 's/^Version: \([^-]\+\)\(-.\+\)\?/\1/'`

to generate the path.
