New comment by classabbyamp on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/47189#issuecomment-1812958051

Comment:
> I don't think that just replacing the content of the package is the right approach to this since it appears to me that they are two different pieces of software from different authors (although with virtually the same functionality). Imho it would be better to just remove the pdftk package and offer a new one under a different name (pdftk-java seems to be a common choice

If `pdftk` is removed and replaced by `pdftk-java`, isn't that basically the same thing as just replacing the package contents, in effect? (difference being `pdftk` becoming a transitional dummy package, I guess)
