Not even close. For instance:

        PKGLIST="modutils- another+ another2+"
        apt-get -y install $PKGLIST

will fail. If you you do it at the lower level:

        PKGLIST1="modutils"
        for $pkg in $PKGLIST1; do
          dpkg --purge $pkg < yes
        done
        PKGLIST2="another.deb another2.deb"
        for $pkg in $PKGLIST1; do
          dpkg --install $pkg < yes
        done

will also fail to remove modutils.

I've just been chatting with BDale and he suggested
I talk to people on debian-boot as there actually
is no current good hands-off option.
