PkgExt_A has methods that extend classes defined by PkgDef. I moved the methods from PkgExt_A to PkgExt_B and published those changes. Everything looked fine in my image. However, when loaded into another image, from a bundle version that includes new versions of all three packages mentioned, the new image still had *most* of the methods in PkgExt_A; PkgExt_B only contained a few of the methods moved to it.
 
I moved the methods a second time and published again. This time, when loaded into another image, the methods appear in PkgDef as red (implying override) but when you click on the method it shows black and doesn't have an override tab. After the the first click, the methods appear as defined by PkgDef as if they'd been there all along--which they were not.
 
Browsing the version of the PkgDef in StORE confirms that the moved code is not truly in PkgDef. Browsing the version of PkgExt_B shows the methods truly were moved (and published). Browsing versions of PkgExt_A shows the methods no longer exist there.
 
In short, code definitions moved in one image don't re-load properly in other images; they associate with the wrong package after being re-loaded.
