I've just switched from 8.1 download edition to 8.2 Power Pack and like
it. But there are some 8.1 packages that I'd like to use in 8.2, for
example:

* Blackbox (present on the 8.1 disks, not on 8.2)
* findutils (the 8.1 package contains slocate, 8.2 does not)
* Some themes for IceWM and XMMS that 8.2 doesn't have
* sane 1.0.5 (which works with my scanner's module; 8.2 ships with sane
1.0.7 which breaks the module)

... and so forth. Given that I already have these packages on my 8.1
disks, is there any reason why I should not install these 8.1 packages
on my 8.2 system? Could I simply define my 8.1 disks as additional
sources?
