	Hi,

	I see with the pkg-1.2 there is support for using multiple
repositories. What is not clear is how to control the search order in these
repositories. I'd like to arrange that my local repository is searched
first with a fallback to the official repository, primarily so that I can
avoid compiling some of the monsters like libreoffice, firefox etc. while
still having packages with my selected options and custom patches where I
want them.

	Anyone know if it's possible to set this up reliably ?
