So you should look at `late-packages'. I don't really feel
comfortable with this, but there's generally not a good solution to
the problem that packages are searched along a *path* but have to be
installed into a *directory*.
My version of package-get-base specifies fsf-compat, mail-lib and
edit-utils as single file packages, this is the crux of my problem,
extraction of single file packages doesn't appear to work (this is known?)
but also shouldn't these be regular packages?
