Right. That "works", but it's not building a native package as you are
requesting with --native.

Right, an inconsistent configuration has been specified. We should
either recognise this and complain, have a priority scheme to disambiguate,
or change the configuration so that only valid states can be specifed (or all
three).

I appreciate that you are keen to work out how to use the tool, but that
doesn't detract from the fact that you had these problems is a deficiency
in the tool that I want to fix. This isn't a place where confusion arising from
poor code, UI or documentation is your fault :-)

Thanks,
