Package: duc-nox
Version: 1.4.3-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

It would be great if the duc-nox package provided /usr/bin/duc (or /bin/duc or
whatever). It's frustrating to remember to type or tab complete the '-nox' part
on the machines I use where I have installed that, compared to the machines 
where
I've installed the full version.

This could be achieved in at least two ways

1) rename duc-nox to duc, add a compatibility symlink, add Conflicts: between 
the
   duc and duc-nox packages
2) Register duc and duc-nox as duc via the alternatives system (and install 
them to
   somewhere else e.g. /usr/lib/duc).

I can't think of a good reason why someone would install duc and duc-nox on the
same system, and solution 1) is simpler, so that's probably what I would do.

I will cook up a patch and attach to this bug.


Thanks
