IIUC this is a very rare case. The more common and important case is
when the package is available from several archives at the same time.

From the UI point of view, I don't know how best to display "new version
available from other archive". Maybe it could be a message or prompt
that shows up when you "Mark Upgradable Packages"?

Either way seems OK.

Not sure what "remainder" you're referring to.
