renaming gtk2-engines-gtk-qt

[Bastian Venthur <expires-2007@venthur.de>]

Hi devs,

I've adopted the package gtk-qt-engine a few days ago and wonder why the
binary is actually named "gtk2-engines-gtk-qt". I'm not really happy
with this name and would like to rename the package back to upstreams
name "gtk-qt-engine".

Here some thoughts:

First, the package is not really a gnome package since it's mostly
interesting for KDE users. So the gtk2-engines-naming scheme is a bit
misleading. Especially for gnome-users just browsing for gnome-themes or
KDE-users searching directly for the gtk-qt-engine.

Second, the package is not really a gtk2-theme. In fact it provides a
program for the KDE control center which allows to chose one of the
available gnome themes OR the "look-like-QT-theme" for gtk apps.

I'm not sure why the former maintainer of this package decided to name
the package this way. I've asked him and he is not sure anymore but
seems to be uncomfortable with the name as well today.

I'd really like to rename the package back to "gtk-qt-engine", but since
I'm not sure why the package has it's current name, I ask on this list.


Best regards,

Bastian
