Why not propose to Homebrew maintainer to replace with your implementation? #3
Comments
Because Homebrew already has a project with the same name, this project cannot be submitted successfully |
I think you can just propose to replace that. That tcping implementation is no longer maintained. And this fully covered its functionality. And it's also native. You can also use a different package name, like tcping-plus. A lot of formulas does that. No need to change executable name. You can specify conflict with the original one so people would not install both :) |
Nice |
Perhaps using aliases instead is a good solution, but it's not clear whether upstream will accept such a solution (because of binary file name conflicts). As a mainstream package manager for Mac, if you can add package sources, it will be of great help to users. Homebrew Formula: https://docs.brew.sh/Formula-Cookbook |
I think they would be interested.
