IntelliJ rename java package and occurances?

I have intelliJ already setup to "compact empty middle packages"

When I do refactor -> rename, the only dialog will only actually rename the directory (even when I have it search for occurances), resulting in my code that uses the package throughout the project, still using the original name.

I'm sure there used to be a way to "rename package" and not just the directory, did the mechanism for this change? I really need to rename my package.

Please don't mark this as a duplicate, because the other places I see this being asked, the solution is to first "compact empty middle packages" - which I have already done... and I still can't get it to work.

Try to open a class that is in that package, then right click on the package xyz.abc line (should be the first line in that file) and choose Refactor -> Rename from the context menu.
