That isn't actually what I said. As an upstream name, in context, Recipes is fine. In an OS distribution that isn't particularly GNOME-centric, it isn't. Mapping between the two is part of the OS distributor job. Analogous: we call GNU Make "make" because we're a GNU/Linux distribution[1], so the assumption should be that things with a GNU version are the GNU version unless otherwise stated. The BSDs call it "gmake", short for GNU Make, because they are not primarily GNU distributions. Similarly, I wouldn't be surprised if a more GNOME-centric OS distribution like Fedora was happy to release recipes-*.rpm, but in Debian it should be gnome-recipes_*.{dsc,deb}. If upstream don't want to rename it, combining a renamed source and binary package with ./configure --program-prefix=gnome- and some trivial patches to desktop files and D-Bus and/or systemd services should be reasonably straightforward. S [1] or a GNU/{Linux,kFreeBSD,Hurd} distribution if you count non-release ports
