[Freeipa-users] Rename or not to rename (packages only)? freeipa-server -> ipa-server?

[Christopher Lamb]

Consistency sounds good.

How would the name change affect yum update?

Hello users and developers,

I wonder what do you think about naming inconsistency in FreeIPA packages.

Packages in Fedora are prefixed with freeipa-* but in RHEL (and
derivatives)
the packages are named as ipa-*. Given that command line interface is in
all
cases 'ipa', it seems like a inconsistency.

Are there any reasons not to rename freeipa-* *packages* to ipa-*?

Naturally name of project would still be FreeIPA :-)

This rename would remove the inconsistency which drives me crazy when I
need
to script something universally for RHEL and Fedora.

Have a nice day!
