OK, I’ll look into that and fix it. Renaming the file in leim will certainly
work, but there may be a more constructive way.
Great, thanks!

Possible, sure. Should we encourage this, or should we fix the issues that
prompt the need for it?
Well, certainly the latter if at all possible.
It may make sense, though, to keep the previous version of packages
around for a few months, so that users and packagers can quickly work
around issues that managed to dodge testing.
Thanks for your work and input on this!
Well, thanks to you for keeping your hands on the wheel... I am only a
lowly packager clinging tenaciously to my favourite editor.
Cheerio,
