Re: bundles of packages are not allowed

[Søren Hauberg]

Okay, that all looks good. Looking at the 'pkg' source code tells me
that it's a problem with the top-level directory.

Your package should be a .tar.gz that contains a single directory called
'Mufit'. In this directory you should put all your files and
subdirectories. Is this the case?
