I think this is most likely a side effect of the "automagically" guess
of the package name from the package dirname.

So, here are the 2 options that, i think, should fix your issues.
You can:
- either substitute all occurences of "SONG_PRESENTATION" by "SONGPRESENTATION",
- or rename the package into "song-presentation" or
"song-Presentation" instead of "songPresentation" (package dirname and
*.mk file).

Cheers,
