Stefan, choosing a helpful name rather than an unhelpful name for a package is not bikeshedding. It makes a real difference for users, since it helps them understand whether they want to use that package. A clear and helpful name makes the package more useful. Arguing over a choice of names which are about equally helpful would indeed be bikeshedding. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
