There is one I thought of, but it's a bit backwards.

Essentially, Debian has a repository of mostly unmodified original egg
tarballs. And, they've already done the hard work of maintaining sane
dependencies.

So, why not simply re-name the .orig.tar.gz in a Debian release
repository to their original names and you have a working set
corresponding to that release.

If you add your selected personal working set, then you have a basis for
working without bleeding.
