No. We sort all the actions appropriately before executing them.
Great, that's what I wanted to hear :)
We actually sort them across packages, so if you delete a directory in
one package and make it a symlink in another, it all works... even
if two packages exchange directories and turn them into symlinks.
We have to do that to avoid the dreaded pkg history mechanism,
critical upgrades and other difficulties.
