Doesn't this cause both ports to be built? If this redundancy is not a 
problem, I'll do the switch.

Sorry, I didn't get it now: "dirstatus" indicates that this is a current PBI 
available on PBIDir, but it actually isn't, because it needs to be added 
there manually, so basically you just added the dirstatus too early?
I thought the updates are added to PBIDir automatically. But if not, will I 
just have to test the autobuilt PBI and then send an e-mail to pbi-dev that 
it's OK and may be added to PBIDir (and then set dirstatus to "active")?

But yes, currently built PBI works OK and may be added (although there's 
already a new version in ports to be built).
