it will not be any better to you, as you can;t really use underscore
in package name. packaging manual says:
4.2.1. `Package'
----------------
The name of the binary package. Package names consist of the
alphanumerics and `+' `-' `.' (plus, minus and full stop). [1]
[1] The characters `@' `:' `=' `t't> `_' (at, colon, equals,
percent
and underscore) used to be legal and are still accepted when
found in a package file, but may not be used in new packages
They must be at least two characters and must start with an
alphanumeric. In current versions of dpkg they are sort of
case-sensitive[1]; use lowercase package names unless the package
you're building (or referring to, in other fields) is already
using
uppercase.
[1] This is a bug.
