I believe fgb added the feature that all new packages created or updated
create an ISO image. on pull or install contrib checks for the presence of the
iso first. This should mean replica's failings (many RTTs using 9p which
doesn't cope well with high latencies) are avoided; you just download the iso
and unpack it with replica locally.
This is how I understand it works but don't take it as gospel, "Fede knows".
