But what do you pay attention to? 
How do you expect this error to get caught before one
(or everyone) comes across the gotcha?
Then once caught how do you repair it in the release
repository?

Hmmm. How do you merge two packages with different
file names.
Can you use this mechanism to merge sub-packages into
full-packages?

Ah. By extra characters you meant to the initials not
the package name. Is that correct?

Really good concrete examples (and near misses) would
be of great use.
