I've got a few useful Nagios monitoring plugins I'd like to add to
Fedora/EPEL.  I'm rather unimaginative at naming, so the Github repo for

package with my username in it in Fedora, it seems a little vain. :)

Before I go making a package and submitting a new package ticket, any
suggestions about that?

My two cents. I am a big fan of packages that are very explicit on what
they are in the name. Doing a `dnf search nagios` turns up that most
plugins start with nagios-plugin- so your current repo name follows that
established convention.

I'd say leave it as is and get that package submitted. :)

I would suggest one package per plugin. The GitHub repo appears to contain three plugins. There's also some overlap in functionality. E.g. in Fedora we already have nagios-plugins-ssl_cert [1], which appears to do the same as your check_cert plugin.

The same holds for nagios-plugins-smtp [2].

Probably best to consult the nagios / nagios-plugins maintainers regarding naming convention and overlapping functionality. Should they not respond on list, then you can get in touch using ${PACKAGE_NAME}-maintainers@fp.o.
