First time I tried it, I expected just "redeclipse", but the upstream doesn't provide this name for some reason, and as Andreas pointed we don't modify the upstream choice without a good reason (although I think it would be good to make a symlink here). For example, we don't have "cc" binary, or you can't do "loadkeys colemak" because we don't make "colemak" link (the upstream calls this layout "en-latin9"). -- Alex
