I'm terribly sorry to be the nitpicking bad guy, but I have issues with
the name. RPG is commonly the abbreviation for role playing game, and
indeed, if you do an apt-get search rpg, the majority of the results are
indeed, games. (And even the exceptions mean the same thing when they
mention RPG in their long descriptions)

As such, I find rpg to be a too common and confusing name, as it has
nothing to do with role playing games.
