I think it's still a bug that libconfig is using such a generic name, but it's certainly one that can be made severity minor, tagged upstream, and possibly wontfix'ed. Whatever the case, I don't think the ctte needs to be involved until there is a real conflict here. If there aren't any objections,[1] lets reassign this bug back to src:libconfig while retitling and changing the severity to indicate the problem. Don Armstrong 1: Say in the next 48 hours?
