5) Rename the "lib" package to something more meaningful. The name
currently implies that it might contain link libraries or run-time

"shared-files" would be a better name. I would appreciate it if someone
would look into what Debian and/or Fedora call this package.
"Common" or "shared" are standard for Windows software. For example,
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared, C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Symantec Shared...
