That's disappointing. The idea of the package being "prboom-plus"
really rankles with me, e.g. imagine if bonnie++ was "bonnie-plus-plus",
libstdc++6 libstdc-plus-plus-6 etc. However packaging practicalities
are important. Let me look over your commits today and then I'll
get back to you whether I'm happy to rename it or not.
