I am sorry, but I read that message as only the particular change
suggested in 748728#12 being rejected. Yes, Julien said that one of the
two packages needs to rename the binary 'lid'. But I find this (renaming
the binary, manpages et al, having to deal with users that find the
binary 'lid' apparently disappearing just because of an update) a rather
intrusive change during a freeze. And I don't believe this is was meant
as the only solution but rather a suggestion.

Julien, could you please elaborate why we can't have the 'lid' command
be shipped both by libuser and id-utils (as you stated in 748728#34)
*even if* a Conflicts: dependency prevents installation of both packages
at the same time?

Cheers,
Micha
