Just to be sure and to not have to do yet another upload. Adding a conflict against slurm-llnl (<< 14.03.8-1) would be right, as according to the slurm-llnl changelog that's the version where the packages were renamed. And wouldn't it be better to also add a conflict on the slurm-client side? This would at least prevent a similar bug if the package get's renamed again. > >> But I would still like to hear from the slurm maintainers and from >> Jürgen Rinas (sinfo upstream and Debian co-maintainer) about the >> possibility of renaming one of the commands.

I don't know the reasons why this package was named sinfo. Maybe Jürgen can answer this question.
