A few months ago I asked on several lists (including -gnome) whether I could rename the package. No real arguments against the renaming where given and it turned out that there is not really a policy about the naming scheme. In fact I feared that more people would protest against my plan to rename the package, but after all there was only one person arguing against the renaming. My arguments were (in short): - name confusing and misleading - name does not fit in the gtk-engines-foo naming scheme (because it is in fact a KDE app not a Gnome one) ... and some other I'm sorry you're disappointed by the name, but I don't intend to rename it back. >> I still provide a dummy package with the old name depending on the new >> package, but I plan to remove it for etch+1. > > Please file another bug when you *remove* gtk2-engines-gtk-qt from the > archive completely, and I'll remove the Conflicts.
