Could you please explain why some people including you try to "convert"
a general problem (that I mentioned some time ago) into a personal problem?
It seems that this is just to pretend it is less important than it really is.
The general problem is that conflicting names cannot be in /usr/bin in order
to avoid problems that cannot be solved by changing PATH. Please do not try to
divert from this general problem.
