Yeah, but Arch Linux TUs seem to prefer "project name" than "package 
name proposed by the upstream". I have recently reported an issue 
stating that it's not possible to find PowerDNS with pacman -Ss 
powerdns. xyproto changed the package name from pdns (that's how the 
tarball is named upstream) to powerdns.
