This won't help in the cases you play with a recipe, change small
details, rebuild, test. It's reasonable to update the version when
publishing. However, it's a needless burden to do that for a local
development cycle. Here, Isar shall support that the just built instance
of a package is also used locally, without an explicit "clean".
