ERRRR... this sounds like a bad idea.
We're cleaning up catalog names, yet the same effort is making
PKGnames  messier, in the sense that we are now making catalog name
and PKGname be out of sync?
I thought we were supposed to be moving to have things more IN sync,
not away from it?

Maybe we need to come up with a better transition plan?
