When something has gone seriously weird:
Charlie-5th-birthday.fcpbundle/
├── .fcpcache
│ └── 17-10-20
│ ├── Original\ Media
│ ├── Shared\ Items
│ │ └── +O2MjDm3TaCq8AMoBpCVMg
│ └── Untitled\ Project
└── .lock-dir
7 directories
Moving the y-m-d folder down a level fixed it mv .fcpcache/17-10-20/ ., but why did it happen in the first place?!
For the record, this is how I backup my FCPX bundle libraries.
