We were actually relatively careful to touch only directories the
packaging system knew about, I thought. Here's the relevant code. I
can't see where this could recurse into /var/volumes; could you look
over the following and see if any of the mentioned directories might
contain symlinks into /var/volumes? I suspect that this is specific to
your system somehow but I don't yet see how. Thanks in advance.
