Your diff does not solve the above problem since it installs packages
from the PKG_PATH of the local environment, ignoring the 'source'
attribute. In particular, it fails in installing 'wget' in the
example.
I think, the PKG_PATH of the local environment should entirely be
ignored in the provider and only the 'source' attribute be used.
