I'm currently reviewing pgRouting:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=652533
the packager is currently using "postgresql-pgrouting" as the name, which
is alright but a bit long. There does not seem to be a policy for naming
DB add-ons yet (though I see a couple of postgresql-* packages).
Would the same policy applied as to, say, the Python add-ons? e.g.
"if the name starts with [pP]y then you don't need the python- prefix".
In this case, "pg" would clearly indicate that it's to be used with
PostgreSQL.
Thanks,
