If this is a rename indeed, completely supersededing gnomemeeting,
sounds to me like ekiga should provide a dummy upgrade package, to make
current gnomemeeting users migrate, and otherwise take care of
migration. It's primarily up to the maintainers to care for package
renames, and in this case, that hasn't happened yet -- for whatever
reason, is it really a plain rename?

But you should really talk to the maintainers about that. Cc'ing the
gnome maintainers & primary maintainer.
