OK.

The Debian autopkgtest procedure is to install *all* needed dependencies
but in a random order (so there is no way I'm aware of to specify one
package before others are installed).  Could you please be more verbose
in how far you consider the sequence in which the R code is installed is
relevant for the test?  I mean after installing all the R packages the
files and directories are equal in any case since the files in /usr are
identical to the content inside the packages no matter in what sequence
the code was installed.

This would be really helpful. 

Kind regards
