Bug#894757: libmypaint-common: file conflict with mypaint-data



One possible solution here is to change the translation domain used
either by libmypaint or by mypaint.

I think it would be better to change the domain used by mypaint (to,
e.g., "mypaint12"), since that change would only have to be a
temporary one, until the next version comes out, which will (if I
understand correctly) *use* libmypaint. But of course, you'd have to
coordinate with the maintainer(s) to make that happen.

I took a look at the mypaint source, and unfortunately they don't have
a centralized location where the translation domain is defined. (Say
what you want about autoconf, but if they used it, this wouldn't have
been a problem.) I think I *might* be able to make a patch, but it's
enough effort (without autoconf) that I'd want to know the mypaint
maintainer was interested before I bothered.

Or you could change the translation domain used by libmypaint (perhaps
to "libmypaint"), but that is a lesser solution, since the patch
wouldn't have a clearly defined expiration date.
