| Subject: | [Patch] Installed script prone to conflicting with competing implementations ( rename to hexdump.pl ) |
Attached patch renames hexdump to hexdump.pl
Its not *quite* as straightforward as a simple rename because that causes it to be installed *twice* due to the historic convention of the ".pl" suffix meaning a "Perl Library" in good old Perl 4 .

Subject: Rename installed script to '.pl'
Note: this must not happen in dist-root, or EUMM will also install this
as $INC[0]/Data/hexdump.pl
