Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201507040001)
Java: 1.8.0_45; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.45-b02
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_45-b14
System: Windows 8 version 6.2 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_GB (nb)

Some strangeness here:

I just created a new Java package by right clicking an existing package in the project navigator, selecting New | Java package and named this 'invoice. No problem so far.

I then right clicked the newly created package to create a New sub package 'gui'.

Rather than create a new package, this second action caused the first created package to be renamed as 'invoice.gui'.  

An attempt to rename 'invoice.gui' to 'invoice' resulted in the package being named 'invoice.invoice'.

Attached screen grab illustrates.

Marking bug as invalid.

I realize now that I has set the package view to reduced tree and that the behaviour observer was actually correct!

Feel like a dork.
