Yes, Marco's point was that the files must exist at the top-level of the
package, not in a packinfo directory. They get _moved_ to a packinfo
directory when the pkg is installed.

The bare minimum for a package that will install is:

    nothing/
    nothing/COPYING
    nothing/DESCRIPTION
    nothing/inst
    nothing/inst/something.m

The files COPYING and DESCRIPTION must exist. There are some required
fields in DESCRIPTION. There must be at least one file in the inst
directory. This package works for me.
