#13132: Updating the system may require immediate restart

 It looks like the package management already moves packages around on an
 update. Since it doesn't keep the packages used open, it can happen that
 it won't be able to access a currently activated package anymore
 afterwards.

 For example, the binutils package had been updated. "as" from that package
 could not be run anymore until a restart.

 That could be improved by telling the packagefs whenever the location of
 an activated package changes during runtime.
