The point is, people have the thing _installed_, because apparently it
comes as default with a full debian install. That doesn't mean they 
actually use them - they're complaining because they get a "this clashes 
with that" error.

At least that's the only comment I've ever gotten: people that say that
they had the old git installed. None of the ones that contacted me said
that they had actually ever _used_ it.

Hands up people. Does anybody _use_ GNU interactive tools? None of this "I 
have a package" crap.
