     (export (intern "SHOES" (make-package 'temp)) 'temp) =>  T
     (find-symbol "SHOES") =>  NIL, NIL
     (use-package 'temp) =>  T
     (find-symbol "SHOES") =>  SHOES, :INHERITED
     (find (find-package 'temp) (package-use-list 'common-lisp-user)) =>  #<PACKAGE "TEMP">
     (unuse-package 'temp) =>  T
     (find-symbol "SHOES") =>  NIL, NIL
