Hi Guys

I've just talked to Richard A. Steenbergen, the maintainer of  IRR
Power Tools which require:
* Aggregate    >= 1.5     (ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/aggregate/)

The "Aggregate" Package on Debian which is mainly for "CIDR network
aggregation and filtering" and ISC Aggregate is mainly for "optimise a
list of route prefixes to help make nice short filters".

Horms, would it be possible for you to remove or rename your
"aggregate" package to something less irritating then aggregate which
is used by ISC.org for it's maintained package which is used by other
Tools like IRR Power Tools?

For most of debian users it might be very confusing, that debian
aggregate is not the same what you get from ISC and vice versa. If you
think your package should remain on debian, I would like to suggest to
rename it to cidr-aggregate or something similar. Anyhow, you talked
about your workload and the usabilty of this package.

So I would be very happy if you could clear this things out and do it
the debian way ;)

Best regards
