`$PKG_VAR = \$(INST)/.dummy` for skipped packages, still keep an explicit
record of skipped packages in some `$(SKIPPED)/$PKG_VERSION`. Or maybe
better yet determine the version of the package that is being used from
the system and write that to a file too.

> Exactly, I don't really see the point. Moreover, I don't want to assume
that this information is constant: it could very well be that Sage is
installed and then the system is updated.
I could make an argument for it. In particular for build dependencies it
would be helpful for recording what packages everything was built with--as
you say it's not necessarily useful information about what is currently
running on the system.
But it would be easy enough to add later if a specific need arises.
