-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hello Sebastien,
First of all, thanks for maintaining perf-tools-unstable. I use it many a times. I just completed the major chunk of bcc packaging. I intend to maintain it under collab-maint/ too. The binary file names are conflicting for bcc and perf-tools-unstable. I don't see a reason why one cannot co-install both the packages and use. But in its current form, it'll fail complaining file overwrites. Personally, I don't think the alternatives route may be of much use because apart from this 2 packages, I don't see any other package using these names. Also, IMO, the alternatives feature is usually useful for common tools like editor, pager etc. One option could be that we append the names of the binaries explicitly. Example, for bcc => execsnoop-bcc, perf-tools => execsnoop-perf What do you say ? Or if you have any suggestions, please do mention.
