I dunno, if testing packages that one maintains is as simple as |

reconfiguring a package, testing, and switching back then I don't think |

it's unreasonable to ask us to test our own packages. We're supposed to |

do that already, and for packages whose dependencies aren't 100% hashed |
| 19 |
out, it can help us figure out what the real deps are. |
