Re: sun-lamp CVS commits



   I'd like to request that send-pr be installed as send-pr.netbsd, or even
   in place of the old sendbug(sp?), but most definitely not be installed
   as "send-pr" in any directory normally in a user's path.

Why does it make sense to do that for send-pr and not for any of the
other numerous programs in NetBSD?  I find it more than a bit silly to
start suffixing programs in the NetBSD operating system with `.netbsd'
or some such thing.

Besides that, I expect that very few people will actually install GNATS
It doesn't make sense to annoy or confuse (or, frankly, dumbfound; if I
were Joe Random User, I'd wonder what drugs caused someone to rename it
that way) the majority of users for the benefit of a handful of people
who don't want to type `mv send-pr <whatever>'.
