BuildPackages are the packages Haiku needs to compile. Generally the

Hello Alex;

The test system is a fresh install of x86_64 off revision 51803.

```
Haiku
base-url: https://packages.haiku-os.org/haiku/master/x86_64/current
priority: 1
HaikuPorts
base-url: 
https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/repository/x86_64/current
priority: 1
```

There is no repository with name "HaikuPorts-BuildPackages" listed here, but 
when HaikuDepot works
through the list of packages, it finds the following packages (as examples) 
are in a repository
with the name "HaikuPorts-BuildPackages";

* keymapswitcher
* mesa_devel
* freetype

These should be associated with a repository called "HaikuPorts". The 
discrepancy in the name
causes problems within HaikuDepot setting up its working data.

This seems a bit odd... not sure how HaikuDepot is getting 
HaikuPorts-BuildPackages

Here is where they live:
  https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/build-packages/


And here are some notes I collected on how this stuff works:
