I had the stale version installed from MELPA myself so I installed the ELPA
version and it looks like package reported the incorrect path name but
under the covers did the right thing.

"Package vlf is installed.

     Status: Installed in 'vlf-20191126.2250/'. <<<---- incorrect path: it
was put in vlf-1.7.2/
    Version: 20191126.2250
