... except for combinations of core plus set of interdependent packages
running in the same address space where the licenses were mutually
incompatible.  It may be that if the packages are *always* loaded from a
repository by the final user and *never* distributed together, this can
be bodged round; it may be that there are in fact no such combinations
and I'm raising a spectre that doesn't exist; it may be that in reality
nobody's worried about the theoretical incompatibilities (except perhaps
Debian).
