Bug 895754 – Please rename sys-apps/uutils to sys-apps/uutils-coreutils or sys-apps/rust-coreutils

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description sylvestre 2023-02-21 21:29:18 UTC]

Upstream here.

uutils is the name of the org, coreutils is the name of the project.
to differentiate, please call it:
sys-apps/uutils-coreutils
or 
sys-apps/rust-coreutils

Gentoo is (almost) the exception (I made the same request for freebsd)
https://uutils.github.io/user/installation.html


Reproducible: Always

Thanks. This makes sense, and it's more important too given we want to package uutils's findutils (as uutils-findutils, probably).

[Comment 2 Luca Barbato 2023-02-22 08:43:00 UTC]

We'll switch to uutils-coreutils soon, thank you for the headsup!
