Actually I was trying to convey the idea that a =E2=80=9Cbag=E2=80=9D is a =
=E2=80=9Cpackage=E2=80=9D
with less ornamentation, if you see what I mean (because bags are
low-level representations of packages.)  So I think these suggestions
wouldn=E2=80=99t work well (and =E2=80=9Ccontainers=E2=80=9D could be confu=
sed with Linux
containers.)

Thanks anyway.  :-)
