It would be great if you could summarize *in this bug* what's your plan 
of action.

We are packaging neomutt, but calling it mutt. The obvious solution is 
to rename the package.  "mutt" could be used as transitional name to 
smoothly handle upgrades. This would not need to live for more than one 
release.

This would not proclude someone else from packaging "vanilla" mutt if 
they wanted to.
