But we are only arguing of getting the categories (partially) in the
package name only where there is a necessity. The example with sudo is
with app-admin/sudo being strictly sudo, and app-vim/sudo being
vim-sudo. So we keep the current names except for those that clash, and
even there only change as little as possible.
