Description Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2002-03-26 21:08:20 UTC 
Since epic obsoletes ircii, it should provide /usr/bin/irc for people who just upgrade 
the distribution without paying too much attention. 
 
Former ircii users will expect 
 
irc nic server 
 
to work out of the box.
Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2002-03-26 21:14:58 UTC 
But doing that means that people can't install ircii without removing epic
first, which isn't ideal either.
Comment 2 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2002-03-26 21:16:32 UTC 
I don't think anyone will want to do that, since they're pretty much the same thing (with 
epic having some extra features).
Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2002-03-26 21:30:17 UTC 
Except that people are stubborn and resistent to change.  Why force the issue?

(does remind me to put something in the release notes, though)
