Minor packaqge browser bug?

Bill Schwab
Andy/Blair,

I think I might have found a minor bug in the package browser (or perhaps
elsewhere).  View the properties of one package, copy its ImageStripper, and
paste this into another package.  This seemed like a nice way to transfer
all of the stripping preferences, so I tried it.

Obviously, the exe file and session manager class would be wrong - they are
easy to fix using Lagoon on the "target" package.  The problem is that the
root package of the resulting image stripper is incorrect, and I saw no
obvious way to fix it myself, or to have Lagoon reinitalize it.

My first thought was to inspect the image stipper of the target package and
simply fix the root package name; done - or so it seemed.  Lagoon still
showed the wrong root package name, and then I remembered the byte array.
So, I once again fixed "the" image stripper, captured it in a global (which
happened to be easier than getting everything together in one workspace),
and set the #imageStripper: of the target package.  That seems to have done
it.

Whether this is a bug, and if so _where_ it is, I'll leave to you.

Have a good one,

Bill
