Apologies if I missed a previous discussion on this topic, but=E2=80=A6 I=
=E2=80=99m
skeptical about the renames.  I assume that the original names were
those commonly used in distributions, which in itself may be a good
reason to keep them.

Those names are also used upstream in some cases: the tarball for
wesnoth is called =E2=80=9Cwestnoth*.tar.gz=E2=80=9D, for example, and the =
GitHub
project of L=E2=80=99Abbaye des morts is =E2=80=9Cabbayedesmorts=E2=80=9D (=
no =E2=80=98l=E2=80=99).  Like our
naming guidelines say (info "(guix) Package Naming"), we should try to
stick to the upstream name.

Thoughts?
