I we can either rename existing packages, or use the double-dash. I don't care which. We must, however, make a decision reasonably soon. One of the biggest problems of Debian, and the one that still may cause it to fail, is it's design-by-committee nature. If we are to argue this issue for three weeks, we'd might as well quit now.
