Hi,
I'm now taking over ITP bugs for libtranslate (#292907 and #418329). I've
already available a building .deb, and my package provides
a /usr/bin/translate, which is found also in your package.

What should I do? libtranslate is a general translation utility, while instead
translate is just de <-> en. I suggest you rename your binary to something more
specific than "translate". Or, if you want, we could use alternatives [1], even
if both packages do *not* provide the same functionalities.

Please let me know, as these bugs are blocking another ITP (#462936).

Kindly,
David

[1] I don't really know how to make this work; it's the first time I might need
them. Some help could be required :)

retitle 464034 please use a less generic name than translate
severity 464034 wishlist
thanks

Hi Anibal,
I've renamed my binary to "ntranslate". Discussion has aroused about "generic
names in Debian namespace". Thus I'm changing this bug's title and severity to
reflect my current request: please don't use "translate" as binary name, as
it's too generic and might as well conflict with future packages.

Kindly,
David
