gotchaPackage name with hyphen (freeze-core) vs import with underscore (freeze_core). Importing freeze-core instead of freeze_core raises ModuleNotFoundError.

gotchafreeze-core is a core dependency for cx_Freeze; it is not meant to be used directly in most applications. Using it as a standalone tool may result in incomplete functionality.

breakingIn version 0.5.0, the internal module name changed, breaking direct imports of old internal modules like `freeze_core.old_module`.
