emh, -eparse.
If the binary is not installed it just disables eatmydata... (yes, if
the binary fails to install it fails, but that's true with everything in
EXTRAPACKAGES, nothing new and i hope expected).
can you be more verbose on what it breaks?

so i used to have.
I probably forgot to test it by having EATMYDATA=no and the calling the
whole thing with eatmydata...
(but I did test having EATMYDATA=yes and *also* wrapping the whole thing
manually)

that would be ugly, expecially considering how the thing is wired in.
I can (and probably will) change remove_package() to not remove packages
that are also list in EXTRAPACKAGES (so, giving EXTRAPACKAGES a
"precedence" over REMOVEPACKAGES, currently it's undefined and it relies
on what's done before, that i could accidentally change without even
noticing..). This is what this bug is about and indeed it's a bug which
I'll fix.
