I didn't yet have the time to try to reproduce this part. (Current
behaviour should be that reprepro get the priority the time the specific
version of a package was added to a specific distribution. If that
happend due to "update" or "pull" it should get the Priority of the
source distribution (and only the one from the file if the file is
added locally via include*/processincoming). Though if the Priority
changed in the source distribution, reprepro will currently not update
to local one (unless there is a new version of the package)).

There is "reprepro reoverride" for this part.
