Hello,

Probably, you weren't really careful while reading the docs. The proper
path should have the form pack/manager-name/start/plugin-name/, where both
"manager-name" and "plugin-name" are arbitrary.

The purpose of "manager-name" subdirectory is to prevent conflicts between
different plugin managers and/or manual plugin installations.

This is documented under `:help packages` topic in Vim's help.

Kind regards,
Matvey
