Rather be safe than sorry. On there other hand, if there is any need to
decrease the number of packages being rebuilt, it's a way to go.

First of all, we need to answer these questions:
* How often do we rebuild these packages? Is that really so significant?
* Wouldn't maintenance of this solution cost us too much?
* Who's going to take care about it anyway?

More questions than answers but that's life :)

Bye
Lukas
