Bug#1098924: crowbar: Please consider renaming source package to libcrowbar-ocaml
Source: crowbar
Version: 0.2.1-6
Severity: normal
User: devel@kali.org
Usertags: origin-kali
Dear Maintainer,
would you consider renaming the source package from crowbar to
libcrowbar-ocaml?
crowbar is a tool for penetration testing [1]. Not packaged in Debian,
but packaged in Kali Linux. Since Kali is based on Debian, src:crowbar
from Debian clashes with the src:crowbar that we already have in Kali,
giving us all sorts of headaches :)
It would help us (Kali Linux) if the source package was renamed in
Debian.
Alternatively, we can rename our source package in Kali to avoid the
clash.
Thanks for your consideration!
I'm willing to rename the package in Debian myself if you're Ok to
rename it (disclaimer: I never renamed a source package, I guess it has
to go through NEW queue again, but I don't know if there's more to it).
Feel free to close this bug report otherwise.
Thanks,
Arnaud
