A broader question: If one does load a new package that has
some serious and uncorrectable problems, is there a place where
the older versions are maintained? This has happended to me a
couple times in the past, and luckily, I have been able to
retrieve a reasonably recent working version out of the stable
directory hierarchy, but some of the ones there are quite
dated.
Also, is there a way of telling pkg-get to save the packages
being updated? (Say, combining the -d and -u options.)
