Uhm, I'm not sure this explain all the details. At some point, you'll
have to decide whether to keep a locally built package (and then
consider their dependencies) or to replace it with the "legacy"
package. Does your explanation mean that you always replace locally
built packages? (unless they've a different version of course).

Cheers.
