lusca / squid name changes #70

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Hi Guys,

while working on getting debian managed package working for my environment
I've been repeatedly frustrated with the squid name throught config files etc.

I realise that we consider lusca to be a replacement for squid - but what
is everyone's view - do I work towards name migrations to reflect
"lusca-cache" in relevant locations or am I flogging a dead horse here?

Input appreciated.

Yo,

So are you asking why I haven't gone through and changed a lot of the "squid" 
mentions to Lusca?

Its because I'm trying to minimise the runtime configuration and packaging 
differences to Squid-2.

What are you changing to "lusca-cache" in particular?

Thanx for the feedback Adrian. 

It was more of a question regarding the longterm plans around lusca, if 
branding is
heading towards lusca in the future then I wanted to start assisting with the
conversions.

For now I'll then keep to the squid naming and just tweak the versioning.

Hi Adrian,

Sorry to dredge this one up again - while you and I obviously both use lusca as 
a
replacement to squid - I'd like to assist (if this is what you wish) to over 
time get
the name changes to lusca for binaries and headers etc.

I understand the want for minimal runtime differences, but by not doing this 
we're
making the inclusion of lusca-cache as a package (in distributions) somewhat 
more
complicated. 

It's easy enough to add all the debian bits - I use it like that daily - it's 
just
that if we want to really get this into wider use the package name will have to 
be
implemented.

What's your thoughts on this?

I'm of two minds about this. I'd prefer that for now Lusca is just a drop in 
replacement for Squid as much as 
possible, rather than a separate bit of software which may end up coexisting.

So I'm not really sure what to do in this instance. Why is it a problem that 
the package is "lusca" but it still installs 
to all of the Squid directory locations (except for say, /usr/share/doc/) ?

I'm guessing Linux Standards Base may have a fit ;-) -- lemme read on what the 
ideal
is vs what makes sense to us ;-) I'll revert after that.

Howdy!

I'm planning on leaving the lusca package with the squid related config, share, 
etc
paths for now. I really do want to make this as much as a drop in replacement 
as can
be allowed (so both upgrades and downgrades are seamless.)

Do you think Debian/Ubuntu would be cool with that? Or do I have to maintain my 
own
binary package?
