Bug#475739: live-helper: package not installed if dependency satisfied only by local package

[andreimpopescu at gmail.com (Andrei Popescu)]

Package: live-helper
Version: 1.0~a43-1
Severity: normal


I have nvidia-glx in my package lists, but it depends on 
nvidia-kernel-whatever, which for sid and lenny doesn't exist in the 
repos. So I built it with 'm-a build nvidia' and copied the deb in 
config/chroot_local_packages. But nvidia-glx is still not installed, 
because the local packages are installed last. 

I can work around it in various ways, but I think this should be fixed.

Regards,
Andrei
