Doh!. Good catch Chris.

Yes, foo-bar is allowable as a package name, foo-2 is not. I'll see what I
can do for a future setup.exe release to address this, but don't expect
anything soon. It'll require altering the installed.db database format,
which results in a non-backwards compatible local environment.
