if your only requirement for *grading is replacing some files, removing
some others and installing yet another set, then `dpkg` can do this
nicely. (and ubuntu fully inherits the merits of dpkg).

unfortunately, *grading is often more than that.
just think of files created by the application that has to be readable
by another version of the same application.
