I don't see why library may not have a descriptive name instead of a short and cryptic one. And the debian package name follows the name of the library it contains. Which is by its pkg-config name: PosixSignalManager Yes, some may find that ugly and long, but it's the libraries name, and discussions on if that name is good should be held upstream. I'm not aware of any debian policy the package name might violate. Also this is a upload to package that recently entered testing but did not build for various release architectures due to tests build on amd64 centric assumptions, which should now be fixed. I think it's important to try to help debian to offer packages on as many architectures as feasable. > > It might be better to rename the package after bookworm became stable. > Given how near we are in the release cycle to the freeze for new packages to enter testing i agree that **if** the name needs changing it is more feasable to do that targeting bookworm+1, but i still think that the name is fine.

> So long for a library, change the name. It might be better to rename the package after bookworm became stable. My intent is to rename `ruby-mdl` into `markdownlint`; like `posixsignalmanager`, it is a package accepted into `testing` a couple of days ago. The recommendation I received was to stick with the odd name *for now*, and to defer attempts to rename the package, or else face the possibility that neither one form (i.e., old name, or new name) would ship.[1] Because the soft-freeze of `bookworm` merely is a few days ahead (February 12).[2] With these options ahead, I choose to stick (for now) with the name already introduced. It might be the safer choice for Christoph, too. Regards, Norwid [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-ruby/2023/01/msg00058.html [2] https://release.debian.org/testing/freeze_policy.html

The name of the package is bad. So long for a library, change the name.
