Subject: spfquery binary conflicts with Mail::SPF
I just noticed that the script spfquery can both be found in Mail::SPF and Mail::SPF::Query. Depending on which module installs first, one or the other will be available for use. Each script seems to do something different and uses different modules. Would it be possible to rename one or both to correct this confusion? Thanks,
The Debian packages based on Mail::SPF::Query and Mail::SPF install their spfquery executables as spfquery.{mail-spf-query-perl,mail-spf-perl}, respectively. Renaming spfquery to spfquery.mail-spf-query-perl in the Mail::SPF::Query distribution proper would be the correct solution, however M:S:Q is deprecated in favor of Mail::SPF and so there will never be another release. I suggest patching M:S:Q locally accordingly before installing it.
