I don't want to argue about that example, it may very well be that using rename from util-linux-ng is a bad choice and that it should be discussed with upstream and in the mean time renamed. If you fill a bug against util-linux-ng I'd like to be in CC to see what the maintainer says and be able to argue on that case. As I said above there is 'ren' in fedora which is a bad idea already, but it is not a reason to let other generic names enter the distro. > At the present 'trash' is the best (in terms of usability) name I've found for > the command that trashes files.

I can propose to-trash in-trash trash-dump trash-put I can try other names if none fits (but I am not very good at that be it only because I am not a native english speaker). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
