If I understand correctly, you have something like:
with List_Generic;
package Rec is
...
package P is new List_Generic(...);
...
end Rec;
with Rec; use Rec;
procedure Main is
...
-- have to use P.Blah to access stuff in P
-- Well, that is because you have not _use_ed
-- P!:
use P;
-- Now just use Blah:
--
Blah(...);
end Main;
