Hi all,

ncdu is a text-mode disk usage analyzer: https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu

I maintain the ncdu package in Fedora (
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ncdu) which is currently ncdu 1.x
(written in C).

There's a new Zig version (2.x) which I would like to also package. 2.x is
being advertised as the "main" version these days (whereas the 1.x C
version is described as "LTS" and "Lags a bit behind on the 2.x version").
So it feels like I should create a new "ncdu1" package for the 1.x version,
and the existing ncdu package can become 2.x.

I'm not sure what to do (if anything) about allowing the two packages to be
installed side-by-side:

* Call the 1.x binary "ncdu1"?
* Or call the 2.x binary "ncdu2"? (doesn't seem appropriate for what is now
the "main" version)
* Or keep both binaries called "ncdu" (packages will conflict)?
* Use alternatives to allow both to be installed with "ncdu" pointing to
one of them?

Any thoughts on how to proceed would be much appreciated!

Regards,

Richard
