Since Loki is a relatively generic name used for many different things, personally I think no one package should use the unqualified name. For example the Loki C++ library distinguishes itself as loki-lib. The name loki-database seems a good choice for the software you are packaging. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loki_(disambiguation) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loki_(C++) > Grafana itself live in another source package and will be a separate effort. Since Grafana was in Debian before and was removed due to being orphaned, outdated and RC-buggy, please note the extra steps required when reintroducing packages; base your new package on the latest version of the old package (such as from the old now archived VCS), unarchive/reopen and triage bugs closed by the removal and reopen and triage security issues closed by the removal. https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/grafana https://tracker.debian.org/news/994097/removed-260dfsg-3-from-unstable/ https://bugs.debian.org/909592 https://alioth-archive.debian.org/git/collab-maint/grafana.git.tar.xz https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=both;src=grafana https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#reintroducing-pkgs -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
