Comment:

 It looks like `-ignore-package dataenc` already does what you want, so I'm
 closing this ticket.

Comment:

 This just needs us to decide what the best behaviour is. I think we should
 at least warn if the package isn't installed, to catch people making
 typos.

Comment (by MagnusTherning):

 Replying to [comment:1 ajd]:
 > I wrote a patch to "fix" this but I'm not sure it ought to be the
 correct behavior. According to the comments around the function in
 question, -ignore-package already has this behavior because it's supposed
 to be used as a just-in-case thing, they way you are trying to use -hide-
 package. Anyway, I'm attaching the patch and I'll leave it up to the
 powers that be to decide what to do about it.

 Well, I find that I have to hide packages regularly since it allows me to
 have a module installed while I'm hacking on the next version of it.
 Without it my unit/quickcheck tests link to the installed version one by
 default.

 One option would be to keep the current behaviour as default, but allow
 overriding it e.g. by using '--force' (similar to how 'rm' has '-f').
