I answered in #9598. For the record, there is the obvious solution that consists of removing packages filtering based on their prefix. This will make profile generation slower, but I don’t know if that would be noticeable. It depends on the efficiency of `union-build'. I think you can drop #9597, which is too specific anyway.
