Here's a clue to the wise. When you publish your bundles/packages as a parcel there is an option to maintain bundle structure. Choose it :)
Step 2: When you're loading your parcel up in to a clean image - make sure you load store first! Why? It loads in the 'Packages' capability. Without it, the parcel loads in forgetting all its structure. If you have it loaded first, then the bundles structure will be correct.
Another hint: If VW tells you it cannot publish a parcel because there are overrides, what it means is some -other- package has overidden one of your methods. You can find this by choosing 'Browse' and then 'Method Overriders'.
This will show you who is overiding you. If this is meant to be, just undo the override and do your parcel publish and later during normal loading the overide will return happily.
