I took a quick look.

There is some minor confusion and package issues and they cannot be replace the 
current packages “AS-IS”. 

At a glance… 
        
        Are they all newer than the ones already in the repo? For example…, 
RDISK shows no version in package, 
        web page says 2011-04-25. Repo version is 2015-03-05.

        HIMEMX contains two EXE versions? Why? Where is the License file that 
was in previous versions?

        All packages extract sources to the SOURCE path. This is a problem if 
the user selects install sources. For example, 
        both UHDD and UIDE contain a SOURCE\CC.ASM file. This will collide and 
cause package installation to fail with 
        FDNPKG and FDINST. 

        Some other docs seem to be missing. Like UIDE\UIDE.TXT. (may no longer 
be needed, IDK)

Unfortunately, I don’t have the spare time to dedicate to carefully go over, 
verify and adjust them at present. 

Jerome
