Re: Bug#749152: RFS: top/2.2.3-1 [ITP]
Hi Kumar / Hi Henrique, The name of the binary is 'Top'. You think it would be a good idea to change the name of the binary ? As far as I'm concerned, I have no problems with Top. * The manpage works well - man top for the top command - man Top for the Top command But, if you think it's buggy, I'll change it. Naturally, I can also try to speak with the Upstream to change the name of the source program but I think it will be... very long. :) Regards, Hugo -- Hugo Lefeuvre (hugo6390)|www.hugo6390.org 4096/ ACB7 B67F 197F 9B32 1533 431C AC90 AC3E C524 065E signature.asc Description: Digital signature

It is also a very bad idea to have "Top" as the application binary. You're just a technicallity away from conflicting with procps, and this is no way to do things. Can you take this upstream and check if they'd be amiable to renaming this to, e.g. "qttop" or something else that is not just a single camel-case character away from "top" ? -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.

I am wondering whether "top" is the best package name, and "Top" the best binary name. I, for one, would be a little confused, given that the standard tool in the procps package is also named "top". What is your opinion? Would a different package name be an option? Thanks. Kumar -- No, that's wrong too. Now there's a race condition between the rm and the mv.
