Noah turned over responsibility for package "planet-venus" to the python applications team. So, let's discuss. I have proposed that planet-venus rename it's copy of /usr/bin/planet. Of course, I would say that. So, a hopefully impartial review of the pro's and con's of this suggestion: Pro's 1) planet-venus is pretty clearly in the wrong here, since the /usr/bin/racket was already present in debian before that package was added. The presence of a conflict with drscheme and plt-scheme is more or less a confession that somebody should have known better. ;) 2) The popcon ranking of planet-venus is relatively lower than racket (approx 50 versus 250). Con's 1) Apparently "planet" from planet-venus is often run in cron, so the renaming would likely cause some disruption. I'm not sure yet how much disruption renaming /usr/bin/planet would cause for racket users; I'll have to consult the racket mailing list. David.
