Yeah, but I can't think of a better name, short of sticking my initials on the end, which is what I did at sourceforge (although the "pim" project is old and never released files.) I can't think of a pragmatic approach. My current inclination is to name the package "pim-tb" and still have the binary just be called "pim", and it could conflict with any future package with also provides /usr/bin/pim. Alternately, I could name the binary "/usr/bin/pim_tb", or just try to come up with completely different unique name. What's the most pragmatic thing to do?
