Regarding the implementation of that script, you could maybe check for
ls returning an error (or whatever) as above. However, better
would be to write something in Python, e.g.,
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
# do something with os.listdir()

By factoring out this functionality in a script, we avoid awkward
buggy so called "best practices" appearing in spkg-install scripts.
As much as possible, anything that could possibly be replicated in
several spkg-install scripts should be factored out.

That's not going to work until python is installed. Why not make it a shell
script instead - it would work before python is built, irrespective of whether
someone has python installed on their machine.
