It says nothing about the package and does not uniquely identify
it:
bundlerApp {
pname = "t";
[...]
meta = with lib; {
description = "A command-line power tool for Twitter";
homepage = "http://sferik.github.io/t/";
[...]
};
}
It's “t”! It's “CLI”! It's... a totally different package[0]!
Please: t-todo-manager (t-todo-whatever, I don't care) or
$something_a_mainstream_distro_uses, but not yet another
bikeshedded unique name, fun as they are to do.
Kind regards,
T G-R
