If this is from your hand-built trunk, I believe it is with good
reason.  There are dozens of options and oddities you can configure on
trunk to make it completely incompatible with the default packages.
IOW, you really should be pointing it at your own repo if depending on
trunk.

Again, if you're building from trunk, the chances that the packages
there are compatible with your build are slim to none.
