I am ok with this as well, as long as the packages have a consistent names 
across all distributions.

+1 to making them consistent across both package types, but I'm a fan of 
keeping the aurora prefix in the package names and not using thermos as the 
package. I had a change at one point to move the RPM over to using 
aurora-executor so they would be the same, will have to do dig that branch up

+1 for renaming and dropping of the old init scripts.

We can also add a `replace` directive to smoothen the transition (e.g

Subject: Proposed Debian package name change

Hello Aurorans,

I'm currently in the process of contributing packaging for Ubuntu Xenial. As 
many of you know, Xenial was shipped with a change of init system to systemd.

Originally I had intended to use the systemd unit files from the Debian Jessie 
packaging. The Debian Jessie unit files, in this case, are simply calling the 
init scripts.

While this works well on Debian Jessie, it unfortunately causes some issues on 
Ubuntu Xenial as Xenial will try to convert the init script before using the 
systemd unit file.

Thus, I set out to rewrite the systemd unit files in a more systemd idiomatic 
way using the RPM unit files as reference.

In the course of doing this, I noticed that the RPM package for thermos is 
named thermos.rpm while the DEB counterpart is named aurora-executor.deb

TL;DR: Is anyone opposed to renaming aurora-executor.deb to thermos.deb in 
future releases to maintain consistency across packaging?

-Renan
