Indeed.  So I reverted one in commit
e23f2ff1836e982fc2289093aab0994e0c0cf2d2 (this particular rename broke a
unit test.)  As you can see in this commit, it’s mostly a matter of
swapping the package names between the deprecated and the non-deprecated
variant.

Any takers?  Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
