Better name? #53

I wanting to try rush locally, so I installed rush (via nix-shell -p rush), but I got the surprise to install another program called also rush, maintained by GNU: https://www.gnu.org/software/rush/, which is a completely different program (a shell).

To properly package rush in other distributions, it would be great to have a name that does not collide with existing programs, especially the ones from GNU software foundation.

Oh yes, someone mentioned this before. I need to think about it.

Currently, could you please download the binary and rename it?

tobiasBora commented 8 months ago

Thanks, but for now it make little sense to package it if the name will change later, as it means that the software is not stable enough to be used in production (as changing the binary name later would break production code).
