No.  But this doesn't rule out other reasons.

I'm actually inclined to think '/usr/bin/google' is fine in this case,
for the reasons Umang outlined in an earlier email:

* This is a sufficiently official Google project.
* All the documentation refers to 'google'.
* People might start writing scripts around 'google' that we would
have to patch.

And having 'google' makes 'google calendar <foo>' read a lot nicer
than 'googlecl calendar <foo>' - it actually makes sense in English as
a phrase.

I think Debian Policy only cares if another package has a conflicting filename?
