Or actually, a few of the old, now stubs, had to have the catalogname
changed because the new package needed it, like for example pm_dbi so
I renamed the old one to pm_dbi2 but the package names are still not
renamed. Usually the catalogname didn't clash because we now stick
underscores in as separators but for one word modules that doesn't
separate them.
Example, normal obsolete:
CSWpmfoobar/pm_foobar becomes CSWpm-foo-bar/pm_foo_bar. Old names are
now stubs depending on new names which have the actual content.
Example, forced rename of catalogname due to single word:
CSWfoo/pm_foo becomes CSWpm-foo/pm_foo. Since new catalogname is same
as old the old has a "2" added to it to make it unique.
