Dear Maintainer,

For various development reaons on my machine, I had to install the
go-task task tool. It is a task runner in the go ecosystem that has
named its executable... task.

https://github.com/go-task/task.git

This very obviously conflicts with the name of taskwarrior's executable.
Which saddens me a lot.

That naming choice from go-task is most unfortunate. But I do not
expect this name conflict to be of major importance to them. But I need
both taskwarrior and go-task's task. Because I use go-task's task in a
git repository, and use custom taskwarrior configuration to handle a
local bug-tracker local to the same git repository.

I would therefore appreciate, even if I do not have much hope on that
front, that debian packaging and the go-task team could come up with an
agreement on the name used here.

As to myself, I'll be looking at a way to rename the task taskwarrior
executable on my system, possibly by modifying the debian packaging.

Best regards.

Guillaume Yziquel.

P.S.: using ubuntu (for the moment), but I believe debian is the right
place to report this bug.
