Although I realized that there seems to me something missing fundamentally in the way packages are represented. Most of the time, when I go to a repository, I find several packages with seemingly no cohesive information about what they do e.g. for OCompletion there are ECompletion, Ocompletion, OCompletionTests (okay this one is obvious), ExperimentalOcompletion, OCForOB, OCLoader, and Ocompletion-Tests (okay maybe not so obvious - to dash or not to dash...). Now I'm not singling out OCompletion - this seems to be the standard model. My slant is to install the minimum necessary, but am I missing a general practice to install all packages available? Although in the OCompletion example, it does not seem to be the right choice, because ECompletion and OCLoader seem to be either-or.
