Message-Id: X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-core-devel&m=118794317314610 Hi! I just discovered when looking into debian packaging of blitz that there is something else with almost the same name - and several files being the same. There is the libblitz pkgconfig file, there is the /usr/lib/libblitz.so and such. The numeric part of the SONAME differs currently, blitz++ libblitz.so is at .0, where kde blitz libblitz is a .4 But blitz++ libblitz can do soname changes and such and quickly reach kde blitz. On sourceforge, blitz name is used by blitz++, where kde blitz has qimageblitz. I don't know if debian is the only distribution who ends up having this conflict, but I would not be surprised if other distributions was having file conflicts here as well. I would personally dislike to make a debian specific rename of blitz, so I am wondering wether kde in general sholud rename blitz to something else. qimageblitz seems to have been used by the author already elsewhere. /Sune
