This is probably more than sufficient as far as using it to install
packages into the installer itself goes. I don't think we should ever
need to install more than one package at a time, and if only one at a
time is installed, your behavior is correct. I also don't anticipate
this ordering issue being a big deal with the way the installer will use
packages.
So if you do write full ordering, you may want to make it an ifdef just
like dependency checking is.
