I agree that we should keep packages separate (although I never said the
contrary), but my opinion about the name of libtorrent10 package (name
of the package, _not_ the library) is still the same: what is the
rationale for a lib${PROTOCOL_NAME} _package_ name?
Are you assuming that only that library implementing the protocol will
be part of the distribution? Or should we consider it as a kind of
"favourite" library just because it was packaged before others?
