What about existing packages with the same program name? For instance, https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/lam4-dev/filelist has /usr/bin/hcc and https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/uhexen2/filelist has /usr/games/hcc and I'm quite sure that the hcc programs have different functionality. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Pascaline project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
