fix(naming): Change mint-common to mintcommon #7

Closed brianrobt closed 3 years ago

brianrobt commented 3 years ago

I was reading the docs for the first time and noticed that "mint-common" wasn't accurate. The GitHub link was redirection to https://github.com/linuxmint/mintcommon.git from ../mint-common, but I thought I'd make things more accurate since it was low cost.

The software is called mint-common. See the Debian/copyright file. That's also its name for translating: https://translations.launchpad.net/linuxmint/latest/+pots/mint-common. I think the redirect on GitHub is because the repository is in "mintcommon" but the software proper name is "mint-common" so the redirect makes both work without having to change scripts or such that assume the one or the other.

Gotcha. My fault for not reading that. Thanks for the heads up. Closing.
