This is a massive namespace clash waiting to happen, and that's BAD.

It is also a very bad idea to have "Top" as the application binary.  You're
just a technicallity away from conflicting with procps, and this is no way
to do things.

Can you take this upstream and check if they'd be amiable to renaming this
to, e.g. "qttop" or something else that is not just a single camel-case
character away from "top" ?
