Multiple api objects too if they do that...
Cheers,
AI/DC/gui does not have explicit safeguards about invoking pkg concurrently.
In the 2 places where pkg commands are invoked by the various
install related components, the transfer module and ICT,
I can see that pkg commands are executed one followed by another. In
the case
that Shawn pointed out in this message, there's a "for" loop executing
those
"pkg uninstall .... <pkg_name>" commands.
If users execute pkg commands to the same alternate root as the
installer while
an install is going on, I don't think it is the installer's job to
prevent it.
