Re: Installed libast1 0.1.0-0pre2001051101: name-clash



Laurence,

	This is to make you aware of the following:

Your "Library of Assorted Spiffy Things", libast, may have a name conflict
with libast from AT&T, "Advanced Software Technologies open source collection".

This is available from http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/ and not [yet ?]
packaged for debian.....

This AT&T AST package contains the original ksh93, amongst others.

May I suggest a different name for your package, "Assorted Spiffy Stuff"......
libass, no...., not good?...?...


Or is the above the reason you have chosen 'libast1' for the binary package....?
