  The SAP error message PACKAGE_BUILDER01606 indicates that a package interface has been renamed. This message typically arises during the development or transport of ABAP packages and is related to the package interface management in SAP.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A package interface (which is a defined interface for a package) has been renamed, and the system is trying to reference the old name.
  There may be inconsistencies in the package interface definitions or references in the code that are not updated to reflect the new name.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Package Interface: 
  
  Go to the transaction code SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE21 (Package Builder).
  Locate the package interface that has been renamed. You can search for the old name to see if it still exists or if it has been completely removed.
  
  
  
  Update References:
  
  If there are any ABAP programs, function modules, or classes that reference the old package interface name, you will need to update them to use the new name.
  Use the search functionality in the ABAP Workbench (SE80) to find all occurrences of the old interface name.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If the renaming was part of a transport request, ensure that the transport is correctly imported into the target system.
  Check if the transport request containing the renamed interface has been released and imported successfully.
  
  
  
  Rebuild or Activate:
  
  After making the necessary changes, activate the affected objects (programs, classes, etc.) to ensure that they are using the updated interface.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no other dependencies or references that might be causing the issue. Sometimes, other objects might still be pointing to the old interface.
