Yes, I've just asked Hisham about how is the new revision-based
approach structured, and that is the correct way to deal with
revisions.

He can explain on more details, but the idea is: all official recipes
will have revision information. The only versions without revision
will be those locally edited/created (i.e., LocalRecipes), which
should be selected when GetRecipe <program> <version> is called. Same
applies for official X local packages, so it seems to be ok to keep
this logic inside GuessLatest, to avoid having to spread exceptions
cases in FindPackage or GetRecipe.
