So I think I've traced it down to a potential lack of saved info in my pack description. 

There is a method "getObjectCount" which is currently returning zero. It looks like the pack needs that data when going down the "reuse cached packs" path. Until now this information hasn't needed to be passed/stored. 

Because this data isn't stored in a file but in the pack description itself its not (currently) persisted in my implementation. 

I guess I need to add this to the writePack support ...
