Thanks for your response Shawn. Do you know if an RFE exists for this
functionality?

Even though what I'm doing may not be 'supported', I would have

would prevent newer versions of packages being installed than what was
requested in the branch.
Dependency resolution currently works by treating specified versions as
a 'minumum' version; not an exact version. This means that if you
specify [email protected], you will get the newest version.
The other issue at hand is that the current dependency solver can't
backtrack to find suitable versions. So success or failure greatly
depends on what the contents of your 'entire' package is.
Cheers,
