Package: dh-make-php
Version: 0.2.8
Severity: normal

Thanks for this great tool, dh-make-php makes my life much easier.

I'm packaging PHP_CodeSniffer using dh-make-pear which creates, as its
manual says it will, a package called php-<pear-package-name>, or
"php-php-codesniffer"

However I think this redundancy is unnecessary and want to call the
package simply "php-codesniffer"

I tried dh-make-pear --prefix "" PHP_CodeSniffer bug got errors like:

ln: invalid option -- p

- because dh-make-pear creates a package called "-php-codesniffer"

I think 1) that if --prefix is not specified, dh-make-pear should
default to adding the "php-" prefix only if <pear-package-name> does not
already start with "php-" and 2) it should be possible to specify
--prefix "", to avoid the prefix altogether.

Much thanks, Jack
