Given package name-version{0,1}.tgz in a $PKG_PATH directory, `pkg_add
name` will match both and present the user with a choice.
Given package name-version1.tgz only, `pkg_add name` doesn't prompt
because there's a single directory entry match.
I would exclusively populate the directory with entries, symlinks or
otherwise, pertaining to the latest version of packages.
