Package: ninja
Severity: normal

Dear ninja maintainer,

I have recently sponsored the upload of ninja-build package. This package 
provide a 'make' replacement. This commands is run litterally hundreds of times 
when used.

Right now ninja-build has been marked to conflict with ninja package, since we 
needed to preserver the small 'ninja' command name.

After discussion on debian-devel mailing list, we believe it would be a better 
long term solution if ninja-build would not conflict with ninja. In which case 
you would need to rename the root process /usr/sbin/ninja to something else.

Would this be possible ?

Thanks
