Package: debian-policy Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org, charlesmelara@outlook.com, onovy@debian.org thanks I'd like to propose adding the virtual packages "todo" and "todo.txt" to the authoritative list of virtual package names. I'm submitting this per Policy section 3.6 and the preamble to the [authoritative list]. [Todo.txt] describes an ecosystem of task management tools that revolve around a standard for a freeform-text tasking file. The reference cli has been packaged for some time, as "todotxt-cli". It provides the executable "todo-txt". An alternative cli provider, "topydo", has been recently added, adding an executable by the same name. I propose uniting this packages using the name "todo" - the common name for the utility. Since not all todo list packages that may want to share that name conform to the todo.txt standards, I also propose "todo.txt", a strict subset of "todo", for packages which conform. Note that topydo already implements these virtual packages, and that there now exists a todo.txt-base packages that extends cli todo.txt capabilities. There is also a todo.txt-cli package in Sid. This is redundant, and has a pending RM request. I did a screen scrape of p.d.o to find any possible collisions for these names. There is a single package, devtodo (popcon 74, recently ITA'd), that installs a "todo" executable. Currently, topydo Conflicts with this package. I'd propose adding it to the "todo" virtual package. This is a request for comment per the procedure in the list. Please copy replies to this bug report.
