I'm not an ISO expert, but ISO [19770-5](https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#iso:std:iso-iec:19770:-5:ed-1:v1:en) defines _software package_ as follows:

> complete and documented set of software (3.1.13) supplied for a specific application or function

This has the following note:

> Note 1 to entry: In the ISO/IEC 19770 family of standards, the term software package refers to the set of files associated with a specific set of business functionalities that can be installed on a computing device and has a set of specific licensing requirements. In the ISO/IEC 19770 family of standards, the terms “software product” and “software package” are used synonymously depending on the context of the item described.

Can we simply say: "Software Package: Is, as defined by ISO 19770-5:2013, a complete and documented set of software supplied for a specific application or function."
