[n8vnr@nivex.net: Bug#159974: ax25-apps: File conflict with icecast-client]

Hi all you debian-hams.  I just got this bug report.  Namespace conflicts are
just so much fun.  Since icecast didn't exist until 1999 I figure ax25-apps has
"squatters rights" to the name "listen."  On the other hand, I'm not looking to
get all worked up over the possibility of changing the name.  I was thinking
maybe suggesting to upstream names like:

ax25listen
axlisten
listenax25

What do the masses think??  I'm sure Craig et. al. will have an opinion or three about
it.

73,

Pat
