The problem is, Im not only importing the items, I need to catalogue them
into collections named acording to their theme I have more than 19.000
 items to import and between those I have no idea how many themes and
therefore how many collections I will need to put under specific
structures, I am going to use the Item import command in a later step, but
first I need to create the structure of collections. If it was for me I
would do it diferently, but its a request from the university library so I
need to find a way to insert those collections. I am trying to find a way
where I don't need to directly insert data in the sql database, because
after seeing the map it seems quite easy to forget some relation between
tables and make things not work properly.

Thats why Im trying the packager command, at first I thought the
StructBuilder would solve my problem, and if it wern't for the fact it
doesn't recognize already existing structures, it really would.
