Similarly for haiku_x86.
As there aren't true "system packages" on a non-haiku host, system packages
are disabled in buildmaster mode. The only source of packages therefore is
the packages directory. In my setup I've opted for having a directory where
I've gathered the initial dependencies within the haikuports checkout and
then symlinked them into packages. This way they are not picked up by the
repository creation script but are part of the dependency resolution.
