So if I want package X on a porterbox, and another Debian porter wants package Y, and they conflict because of poorly chosen command names, the two of us should coordinate so that we can send a suitable series of each-other-reverting updates to the DSA ansible repo and thereby arrange to both do our work, albeit interleaved rather than simultaneously ?
