I think changing package name to live-usb-creator will create confusion with liveusb-creator by Fedora and that might be package for debian as well. > Regards, > > -- > Mehdi Dogguy مهدي الدڤي > http://dogguy.org/ > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
