Bug#473905: tramp: Please rename package to emacs21-tramp
Package: tramp
Version: 1:2.0.55-3
Severity: normal
When searching a package:
apt-cache search tramp
The 1st line of debian/control::Description is displayed:
remote file access in Emacs
This is too geneneric, now that Emacs 22 includes tramp.
SUGGESTION
Couple of choices:
1) rename package to emacs21-tramp and remove it along when emacs21* packages are
removed (made obsolete by emacs23).
2) Change the 1st line description to clearly state it's for Emacs 21 only.
This is mentioned in further paragraphs, but they are not seen during
"apt-cache search" time. Something like:
"remote file access for Emacs 21.x"
