+Functions that accept two args (conventionally: final, prev) and return a set of [[package]]s.
+
+The `prev` arguments holds the set of packages of the "parent" overlay while the `final` argument holds the end result of **all** overlays applied. This means that overlays depend on each other. It is unclear how we can tell on which overlay an overlay depends.
+
+We can use it to override existing packages or add new packages.
