> There are a few issues with current newt package creation:
> - It's opaque as to how to create a local package in a project.
> - Need to add two options:
> - newt pkg new <pkgname>: create a new package in the current directory,
> with a basic template
> - newt pkg clone <pkg-location> <pkg-dest>: Clone an existing package
> into the currnet directory.
> - Currently, there must be an exact match on repository descriptor, or the
> newt tool will barf. This should be smarter --
> - If it can't resolve a dependency in the local project, it should look at
> the current project/workspace, and try to resolve the package
> - It should issue a warning if it can't find the package.
> - Currently pkg.name and the name of the package directory can not match, and
> the pkg.name will be taken over the pkg directory. There should be a warning
> issued if the package directory does not match the package name.
