Take my advice... don't. Sooner or later they _will_ get out of sync so
there's no point in trying. You can always get to the upstream version
via #'package-get-info anyway...

That wouldn't work for #'pui-list-packages. The version columns are
formatted to n.nn, so 8.008 would transform to 8.00 in PUI's buffer.
Thanks Steve,
so I'll just start with 8.0 and will increment it ...
