Hmm, isn't it more like a profile? I mean it would work the way above but there's (presumably) some reason why SOME-PACKAGE was an extra package.

What are the downside of using a profile vs. using a package in that way? --Sig_//xKPKGTKYT83ukVkgcaN0jE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEds7GsXJ0tGXALbPZ5xo1VCwwuqUFAl3/zMMACgkQ5xo1VCww uqVlIwgAhFjsLYdMt2LqJCX5sFGL+JO7/zKoj6HXXFvFqPYzf5KYF0VLm23C+QJf EGKCp6J0/DaGDLYf+aw+T9I0gCT3YrCe+auM/VNkkNG8L+kpUHaniWLwZDqAiLil lnKsnNJ2Mk20On4U5ZT+wPb+8IllRjW6K7qNXM2i1dHcshN0jcWWfe7JSNRr/GMC Cr/lnqP0kYc+kSog0r/vLUe8zV5EGclGF4tMfWbYWIFhGUkVkLinM23cd5aA/CNb J7WpLwi/+2o2+xfoT+qJgkqXjSx0rMOjot5VeInPhQT1OMKzXwkER80BzKtM3g7+ FPFPU/li2xHb3jJezYwXdjry90eonA== =U74m -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_//xKPKGTKYT83ukVkgcaN0jE--
