Follow-up Comment #17:

@nrjank: does the new title catch the essence of the problem?

Recently, I came back to work more on pkg again

​https://github.com/gnu-octave/pkg

and am interested in the open package bugs 

https://octave.space/savannah/?Action=get&OpenClosed=open&Format=HTMLCSS&Title=pkg&Category!=Forge

There I try to better document/understand the decisions made for the package
eco-system.

Thanks for your patch (file #51266), I incorporate your thoughts into my work.
 Just to note, there are small typos, e.g. "packgaes", and I prefer
"https://octave.org"; as official Octave website.
