As for this bug, I was aware that I broke the directory feature but,
like you, was also not sure right away about how to handle it
properly. The directory feature for package registrations is described
in the documentation. [1]
Kind regards

Actually, as best as I can tell, the old code only supported files as
well, so I don't think this was a regression. It looks as though the
correct approach might be to just install each file that's in the
directory. If you don't have time to look into it, I might take a stab at
it.
Thanks,
