Sure, mine was only and example...

I'm not sure on that. If i put on a profile 'libreoffice-fresh' and
'libreoffice', i need to install first 'libreoffice-fresh' so
'libreoffice' get evaluated correctly.
If i install 'libreoffice' first, they will install
'libreoffice-still', and after then 'libreoffice-fresh' will remove it,
mangling all check conditions...

Ok.


Anyway, i'm with Kai: it is a bit ''tricky'' to manage virtual package
like that... ''provide'' feature will be useful...
