We have it for about a dozen other areas that are very similar to this case: BZIP2 GNU INET INET6 KERBEROS KVM NETGRAPH PAM TESTS WIRELESS It is a regularized part of the system. By contrast we have only two cases where the names aren’t related in a regular way: GSSAPI/KERBEROS MAN_UTILS/MAN So if you’d like to propose a better framework for dealing, please be my guest. Hell, I may even support that because I didn’t come up with the current system. However, inventing something new vs using the current convention dictates that we follow the current conventions.
