Would there be a conflict if they both propagated the same input (in
this case the direnv binary)?

In general, I like to keep packages as close to their source as
possible, but I'm slowly learning that this is not often the case when
packaging things (which is a shame and a risk in my opinion).

But all things considered, I think this is probably the right approach
here given the feedback I'm getting.

Here's a patch which should supersede the previous patch:
