It is not especially, it is ONLY because of the module statement.

The directory layout is a convention so tools can find the module 
file, but only the module declaration line in the code itself 
defines the authoritative name.

Odds are, linux_dmx.d is missing the `module 
libdvbv5_d.linux_dmx;` line.

Any import statements and module statements need to use the same 
name. The layout in the file system is secondary to this.
