[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

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
     Commit: cc02f2533782d6b9b628cec7e2dcf25b2d05a27c
    Summary: View Large Files.
    Website: https://github.com/m00natic/vlfi
   Keywords: large files utilities
Other versions: 1.7.2 (installed), 20191126.2250 (melpa), 1.7.2 (gnu)."
