astro is now ereandel

Published: 2024-09-01

My astro project was renamed to ereandel due to packaging needs, as there is another project named astro.

Earendel is the most distant star not belonging to a cluster, also, Eärendil (a close pronunciation) is a character in the J.R.R. Tolkien's universe. Thus the perfect name for this project (with a twist).

Thanks to this, Akash Doppalapudi packaged it to the Debian project! Which is great news. Having a project published on the Debian repositories is a milestone, I hope this brings new opportunities for the project. Kudos to Akash for packaging ereandel and for having the patience that the Debian packaging guidelines require.
