(For the lists benefit:)
For single source:binary packages its really easy. A line like this
should remove the package.

DONT_CHROOT=1 ensure_updated helix-player helix-player $RELEASE$i
"./remove-package helix-player" ''

ensure updated is a function we define with the following parametres:
function ensure_updated {
    # Parameters: 
    # $1 Upstream binary package name
    # $2 Our binary package name
    # $3 Release
    # $4 Build script
    # $5 Version in ./config

I'm not sure how this relates to source packages with multiple binary
packages - guess we'll find out :)
