I took the update part of this patch and applied it alone.

Moving packages around has some drawbacks. Notably, users will have to
adjust their module imports anywhere they use the affected packages.
Also, these changes tend to create annoying merge conflicts between the
master branch and any *-updates branches we may be using.

Thanks for paying attention to this package!
