Quite often the snapshot of the packages and the base system are out of
sync, because naturally, the base has to be built before packages.
For example in this moment, as I write this, Firefox can not be
installed in a new system installed from snapshots, as the packages are
compiled against an older snapshot (amd64)
If there are just space on the ftp servers, I would suggest keeping two
snapshots: one complete with both base and packages (always in sync) and
one with just the newest base. This would make life easier for people
following snapshots.
