Thanks for the insights. In the context of present thread I think we
should not be relying too much on the mixed repo approaches (main repo is
X but can be accessed as Y), as this example shows. As pkgsrc user it's
not a serious issue as there is a way out. But for developers, even wip
developers, it won't be a good idea to use bridges of this kind.
