ea-utils for Debian
===================

Name conflict with usr/bin/alc from package amule-utils-gui
-----------------------------------------------------------

At http://bugs.debian.org/794334
you can read the full discussion about a name clash between one
component of amule-utils-gui and ea-utils.
The short story is: We are facing a name clash in the Free Software
universe and we have to circumvent this somehow.  Following the
arguing in the bug discussion the ea-utils package has to do the name
change:

The original /usr/bin/alc will be moved to 

        /usr/lib/debian-med/bin/alc

So if you want to use alc directly just do the following:  Set
the PATH variable like

  export PATH=/usr/lib/debian-med/bin:$PATH

This makes sure that scripts you are using will find the correct alc
executable.

We keep on providing a binary

        /usr/bin/ea-alc

for those users who don't want to fiddle around with their PATH but
could live with a renamed binary.
