Which is why lintian warnings are left at the appreciation of the maintainer. Renaming binaries in a way that breaks interfaces or expectations is not desirable, of course. That doesn’t prevent the goal of removing useless script extensions from being a worthy one. The idea of putting extensions in scripts is stupid; it denotes a lack of understanding of the Unix way, and makes it harder to make them evolve in the future. Which is why we should remove these extensions when possible, and ask upstream to do so when it is not. Cheers, -- .''`.
