I wrote a longer comment in the upstream ticket.
But here in Fedora, I think we should rename prrte's binary to
something different (prrte-pterm most likely). It's newer and less
popular than the other contender for the name.

Having to use a different name is annoying, but predictable.
A script that wants to be portable wrt. to the new and old names
can do something like this:
  pterm=(command -v prrte-pterm || echo pterm)
  $pterm arg1 arg2
