In general disambiguation is a good thing. But why should both of them
be present in the same directory? Surely we should only copy/symlink the
appropriate plugin for the particular installed version of OpenSync -
not copy them both over (and thus have an unused module in OpenSync's
plugin directory)?
If we do copy/symlink them both over, and then disambiguate them, there
is potential for someone to select the wrong plugin. If we detect the
installed version of Opensync and install only the right one - there is
less margin for error.
