Like I pointed out, Novell's latest SUSE offering doesn't honor that, so I guess that should be fixed ASAP to avoid pointless time consuming mail threads ;)
What you pointed out what that Linux is case sensitive and that there are different programs that have different kinds of spelling. The most this signifies is that at certain moments the spelling might have been different.
If you look at the Novell website, it is clear that it is SUSE and the product is "SUSE LINUX Professional" Not SUSE Professional, not just SUSE, "SUSE LINUX Professional".
I am sure they have better things to do then rename all programs from SuSE* to SUSE* or suse* or whatever and then have the problems of scripts that won't run anymore.

A naming convention on a RPM package is easily fixed.... before: suse-release after: SUSE-release the addition of a Provides: suse-release and a Obsoletes: suse-release will fix issues around a naming convention with packages.. its a non-event and a pointless arguement still... Mike
