Package: dateutils
Version: 0.4.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: newcomer

In [v0.3.3], upstream changed e.g. dgrep -> dategrep as such, the
default configuration no longer conflicts with e.g. debian-goodies
(846074). As far as I can tell from [packages.debian.org] there would be
no conflicts if we removed the ugly "dateutils.d" from debian/rules:

    --program-prefix='dateutils.' --with-old-names

Yes, given it is orphaned, I may get round to it myself, just wanted to
document my findings in case I don't. Compatibility symlinks might also
be desired, since the prefix usage goes back to the ITP.
