No, this is not what happens. Fink packages only complain about what 
other packages install if they are trying to install the same *files*. 
And in such a case, the order of installation does not matter, unless 
one of them has a "Replaces" field and the other one doesn't. If two 
packages install the same *directories*, there is no conflict. And this 
is what happens here. Both packages install the directory 
/sw/etc/bash_completion.d, but there is no common file.
