Thanks, it makes sense now. I did not understand that some cleanup was going on.

Thanks, I now know how to check if my package is correctly installed. 
I am not sure why we would want to install the sources in the final package,
instead of the .sty and the .pdf of the documentation

Thanks. The issue that I had is that the new definition is much more complex than what 
the importer suggested, or what old packages like hyphenat were doing, even though it is a 
very simple package. But I think I understand what it does and I can replicate that.

Best regards,
Matthieu
