No, I just checked the algorithm of WPKG 1.1.0 again and it's supposed to
upgrade the package if the revision number changed. Even if execute=once is defined.

The difference between no "execute" attribute and "execute=once" is just, that
in case of execute=once the checks are not executed each time and WPKG will just
"assume" that the package is still installed correctly.

In case you increase the revision number WPKG will do an upgrade in any case.
