Here I mean the project name, which is iotop-c.

Here is a parallel for that Thanks for your advise, I will wait to see if something else is proposed and will most probably go with renaming the binary. What would be the best choice (iotop-c, iotop_c or iotopc)? As long as this is a tool only for root (or a capped user), alternatives still seem better to me - it wouldn't at all concern unprivileged users, while allowing to run e.g. program-c or program-go and still have program symlinked to the preferred one, but of course I may miss something and be wrong here. > https://github.com/rpm-software-management/createrepo_c >From what I see, this have completely replaced the other project. I do not have that goal. My selfish desire is some day to be able to dnf install and use it, without compiling from source or copying a binary. With best regards, b.
