I am confused... :) If I use a package, just to group files together
for use in another project, is the "uninstall" option supposed to be
enabled? If so, then there is a bug. When I created the package, I
never clicked the Install button, just compiled it, which seem to have
been enough for Lazarus to put it in the "New Requirements" listbox.

And an excellent feature!!
I better go and look at the wiki to see if they mention the problem
that tripped me over. If not, I will add it. Specifying unit paths in
the package that should be auto added to whatever project uses the
package. Don't specify paths that are earlier than the path that the
.lpk file lives in!!! My directory layout caused me to do that, which
gave me major headaches!
