[Cuis-dev] learned something interesting about installing packages

If a package is installed that defines subclasses of classes that are
defined in packages that have not been installed yet, their superclass will
be changed to ProtoObject. No warning message about this will be displayed.

For example, suppose the UI-Entry package is not installed.
That defines the class TextEntryMorph.
If I install a package that defines the following class

TextEntryMorph subclass: #CenteredTextEntryMorph

that will be changed to

ProtoObject subclass: #CenteredTextEntryMorph
