select package_name, count(*) as n_packages
from packages join package_log using (package_id);

This query is the simplest one, but doesn't display packages without any logs.
If you need this, try this one:
select p.package_name, (select count(*) from package_log pl where pl.package_id=p.package_id)   as n_packages
from packages p;

And one more:
select package_name, sum(case when package_log.package_id is not null then 1 else 0 end)   as n_packages
from packages left join package_log using (package_id);
