I wonder where they come from.  Is this from a dependency or are there
actually two such classes?

To satisfy the dropseq-tools build system the dependencies a symlinked
to the build directory.  I suspect that the error is something to do
with that.

Is it correct that this would ensure that in case of duplicate class
names this would pick the class from the current package?
