I'd like to bring few more arguments to consideration. I forgot to CC to David Paleino when I posted my idea of wrapper script so I wrote to him and he replied with another good argument:
> I think that, while the wrapper script is a good technical solution, it'll > vastly reduce the usefulness of the package, and it will diverge it from > what upstream distributes. This way we introduce a delta between Debian > (and its derivatives) and all other *nix distributions with that package. > We can consider this important or not, but we should take it into > consideration IMVHO. I also have an argument of my own: according to popcon libmysql-diff-perl have only about 10 users. Because mysql-utilities in mysql-workbench Recommends, I estimate its number of users will be 10...100 times greater. (at the moment mysql-workbench is waiting for ftp-masters approval) When number of users may appears to be unrelated, I think it makes David's argument above stronger. Therefore on second thought I came to think that David's suggestion makes a lot more sense. Any thoughts?
