Yes, for now; it's better that build both and let "dpkg -i" explode.

Getting v1.2 to work alongside v1.4 needed quite extensive changes;
but the "prefered version" logic is not yet implemented.

I was thinking, how should we define this preference order:
- text comparaison of package name (bad)
- order of package as seen in yaml files (won't work if
self.yaml['packages'].items() is a dict)
- explicit "score" int (ugly)
- 'better_version:' pointer to an other package in same yaml, that
acts like 'demo_for:' ;
so I guess I'll go for this.
