But how can I choose the correct package if the different sources do
not have Min or Max version numbers?
I mean, the `New Requirement dialog` should have an option to choose
the package by path (default/preferred) and not only by Min Max.
I saw that I can change this information editing the .lpi file, but
would be great do this using IDE, don't you think?

Best regards,
