I'm getting the impression that salt tries to run several states
asynchronously? Is there a way to turn this of?

[Thomas S Hatch]

I don't understand what you mean here, all states are run serially, in a
finite order, Salt restricts states from being at the same time on a minion

Ok, that's what I wanted to know. I was getting errors about dpkg not
being able to run because of some lockfile.

This generally happens if a state run is killed midway and dpkg is left in
a bad state (or something else puts dpkg in a bad state)
