I don't think that is fixed.  I just checked and the concept page
still uses the word "packet".

The two words "packet" and "package" have different meanings in
English.  "Packet" is used in computing to refer to things such as TCP
packets, UDP packets, etc.

"Package" is used in computing to refer to things such as RPMs and
DEBs, which are collections of programs, etc. which collectively
perform a set of functions on some topic.

I believe that the word "package" should be used on the concept page. 
The word "packet" is confusing in this context.
