How to create a private package for just single meteor app?

Meteor 0.6.5.1 from 0.6.4 (my custom private package is ignored and won't load properly)

I can't seem to get my package that I used to have inside my packages/ folder and added in smart.json:

{
  packages: {
    "my_package": {
       "path": "packages/my_package"
     }
  }
}

I've also tried using an absolute path as well as moving the my_package outside of the meteor directory all together

Since 0.6.5 upgrade it now says:

smart.json changed.. installing from smart.json
  Package my_package has been ignored because it has been manually installed in /packages

I've also tried: 

$ mrt add my_package
my_package: no such package

Resulting in: "no such package" error, even though it's in the packages/folder

What am I missing!! :)?

In my experience, the underscore in the name "my_package" is what doesn't work. Try renaming the directory with a dash "my-package" (and adding to .meteor/packages) to see what happens.

You don't need a smart.json file if it is a private package for just this app. You do need a package.js though. After that, just add the package name to .meteor/packages.
