Solanum is a GNOME Circle app so we could perhaps use gnome-solanum
for the source and binary package names . I don't think it's necessary
to rename /usr/bin/solanum though.

Repology also notes the name conflict and suggests "solanum-pomodoro";
however, it looks like no other distro has adopted the name
gnome-solanum or solanum-pomodoro. The AUR has at least used
solanum-ircd.
