Obviously we renamed packages (which made us incompatible with the rest
of the world) already if needed. Rememver iceweasel or icedove?
Possible renames is already built in our interpretation of DFSG §3,
that we allow renaming when original names are forbidden by license).
So: compatibility is not an absolute core principle.
