Package: remind Version: 03.01.05-2 Severity: important
Previous versions of remind had no ''rem'' command on Debian. There was only ''remind''. According to the current changelog.Debian.gz this was changed. ''remind'' previously assumed a default file ~/.reminders whereas the current version of ''remind'' does not. Hence, previously used command lines using ''remind'' cannot be used anymore. Assumingly, this affects also depending packages and third-party programs such as wxRemind. In general, it should be sufficient to now use ''rem'' instead of ''remind'' as the current package ships with a symbolic link ''rem'' pointing to ''remind''. I would suggest some README.Debian file or a warning shown when installing or updating the package.
