I seem to remember doing an install where I told it to update
an existing system (at the same version). What it did was to
replace __all__ the packages that the previous install (at the
same version) had already put there.

I wish an install (even if unwanted) would SKIP installing a
package if the package already there was the same (or newer)
version. [I'm assuming those who WANTED a replace could
have done "remove" or "format".]
