First level, second level... ? |

I'd rather see the deps/prefix data slapped into the binpkg, and |
| 6 |
tracked alongside, and verified prior to installation. |

Reason being- say a package links against libssl, and |
| 8 |
is built to be installed into a user's directory (irssi for example). |

A restriction of the sort you're specifying would block irssi from |
| 10 |
ever being binpkg'd for home installation. |

Clarify please :) |

Offhand, I don't see why a bin repo for a home target isn't viable, |
| 15 |
along with a vdb repo in the same location. It's a bit trickier, but |
| 16 |
I suspect it might be a bit more flexible in the long run. |
