Bug#596571: Acknowledgement (ITP: evansdebugger -- Graphical debugger and disassembler for ELF binaries)
Hi Fernando. I'm fine, thanks. :)
Now that "edb" package name is already taken, "edb-debugger" looks
better than "evansdebugger" to me. Another option that comes to mind
is "edbg" which matches "kdbg" and "e2dbg" well. However there could
be a small chance of confusion between edbg and e2dbg, but I
personally would ignore that chance. Yet another choice (to make
things more complex!) is "edebugger" which avoids the redundancy of
"db" and "-debugger" in "edb-debugger".
I hope everything goes on well, and we get a Debian package for this
nice debugger one of these days.
