Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.14.16.6ubuntu4.1
Severity: normal

I'm trying to make a company internal repository with packages of internal only 
files and whatnot. dpkg-scanpackages complains that the 
package I'm trying to add isn't in the override file. Upon looking at the web 
page, I note the tantalizing "priority" field, but the 
contents of this are undefined, and there's no pointer to a way to figure out 
what would be useful here.

I'm hoping this is where I can tell our systems to prefer our version over the 
mirror version, since we need to ride the edge on a few 
packages.

In any case, I can't figure out what to put in this file, or why from this man 
page.
