Overview
50+NOTE: This package should really be named "par" not "Par". 51+It has existed thus since at least 1993. But it was never packaged 52+for openSUSE before now and, being fairly obscure and little known, 53+a more recent utility from http://parchive.sourceforge.net, or at 54+least the openSUSE packaging of it, has already been using the name 55+"par" for some time, AND, at least one other package, "dar" expects 56+and depends on this. So this package can't realistically use it's 57+own rightful name as it would conflict with gpar/par-cmdline, and 58+break -at least- dar, which are both more widely installed and used 59+and so can't be changed easily now.
I'm not sure this NOTE make any sense in the description of the package. Let alone that the package is nether called par nor Par
