Thank you. But to be really sure, I would suggest some additional tests.

First of all, it might be lucky that bar is before foo in the
alphabet. Perhaps try it the other way round... And, more important, let
the packages change files. That is, in your setup (without swapped
alphabetical order, your filenames and versions), bar_1.0 would contain
the file /usr/share/baz, but bar-1.1 would not, whereas now foo-1.1
would contain it.
