^ Correct! "Pack" has several different meanings.
As a noun, "pack" can mean the same thing as a backpack, rucksack, bag, etc.
"He took his pack with him while hiking up the mountain."
It can also mean a small cardboard box that only has the same items inside of it.
"A pack of cigarettes"
"A pack of playing cards"
"A pack of gum"
Package is any assortment of objects put into a (usually small to medium sized) box or container and is most often used when items are delivered by mail.
