Thanks for the confirmation: I've updated the description of the
package in debian, to use DVBcut and be consistent with the desktop
file.

Here is the patch that I received: you'll see that it only changes 3
instances of DVBCUT, in the description part mainly, using the name of
the application and not the executable.
But I agree with you that this is borderline and I would understand
you reject it.

Actually, only Debian files and the manpage were 'patched', and I
totally agree with you on that point.

Totally agree: I only checked the user facing ones (the one installed
in the Debian package), and none of them is shown to the user, so
you're totally right :-)

thanks,
Fabrice

 .SH DESCRIPTION
-DVBCUT is a Qt application that allows you to select certain parts of an MPEG transport stream
+DVBcut is a Qt application that allows you to select certain parts of an MPEG transport stream
 (as received via Digital Video Broadcasting, DVB) and save these parts into a single MPEG output file. It follows a
 ``keyhole surgery'' approach where the input video and audio data is mostly kept unchanged, and only very few frames at the beginning and/or end of the selected range are re-encoded in order to obtain a valid MPEG file.
 .br
-DVBCUT needs to create index information on an MPEG file first. Therefore, when loading an MPEG transport stream file, it also asks you for a filename of an index file. If you choose an existing file, it is loaded and used as index if suitable. (That means, that dvbcut performs some sanity checks on the index itself and also checks if the index describes the chosen MPEG file.) If you select a file which does not yet exist, dvbcut creates the necessary index in place.
