It's the package for the CPAN File::Rename distribution, and therefore named accordingly to https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/perl-policy/ch-module_packages.html#s-package_names in Debian. But yes, adding a "Provides: rename" wold probably make sense. (Cf. also http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/policy.html#package_naming_policy ) Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
