New issue by emacsomancer on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/20714

Description:
<!-- Don't request update of package. We have a script for that. https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/void-updates/void-updates.txt . However, a quality pull request may help. -->
### System

* xuname:  
  *Void 5.4.29_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate hold rrrmDFFFFFFFFFFFFFF*
* package:  
  *affected package(s) including the version*

### Expected behavior
run [Foliate](https://johnfactotum.github.io/foliate/") via `foliate` or similar
### Actual behavior
Foliate must be run as `com.github.johnfactotum.Foliate`
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
Install `foliate`


(I'm not sure the best way of renaming the executable in the [package build](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/blob/master/srcpkgs/foliate/template). I tried adding:

```
post_install() {
	vbin com.github.johnfactotum.Foliate foliate
}
```
And some similar variants, but didn't have any luck.)

Comment:
Renaming the executable alone won't work. The binary name has been hardcoded mulitiple times in the source.

[I'm not the pkg-commiter]
If I were you, I would do like this: https://github.com/sgn/void-packages/commit/d505b965040159558934d37d12b93cc2cc39fdc4

Comment:
This assumes nothing else would possibly try to execute this program.
I think keeping the name and adding a symlink to `/usr/bin` is generally a better approach and is done by archlinux.
