New comment by q66 on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/25633#issuecomment-709489428
Comment:
I disagree; if anything is arbitrary, it's the current convention, and it just makes package searches confusing and introduces a relatively small minority of packages that have mixed case names while vast majority have lowercase names
not to mention that the current convention isn't even always respected, so it's not "for the sake of change", it's for the sake of consistency
the change is also easily implementable, so i see no reason not to go with it
