Hello,
sethdlc is for our packet-radio soundcard modems.
tail of man page:
AUTHOR
sethdlc was written by Thomas Sailer, HB9JNX/AE4WA
(
[email protected]). Inspired by setserial.
Sethdlc 0.1 27 April 2008 SETHDLC(8)
If both projects would rename their tools, we could discuss.
I add Author hb9jnx to Cc for asking about his opinion.
And ‚no‘, my next software project INITiative would not be named ‚init‘ and not be placed to /sbin/ — Lol ;))
vy 73,

Hello Chris,
Ax25-tool's sethdlc program predates this far later Asterisk dahdi-tools utility by decades so I would argue that Asterisk should change. That said, I don't know if there is much use for the sethdlc tool these days as it was used with legacy hardware.
I've CCed DL9SAU here who supports the the primary version of these tools at
https://linux-ax25.in-berlin.de/wiki/Main_Page to see what his thoughts might be here.

Hi,
your packages ax25-tools and dahdi-tools both install a program
names "sethdlc", although in different components of the PATH.
As this is confusing and a possible source of bugs, policy bug
#1075856 wants to outlaw this.
Please find a solution for your packages. Ideas:
1) if one of the programs is an internal implementation detail of
the package, install it into a private path in /usr/lib instead.
2) rename one of the programs
3) rename both of the programs
Thanks,
Chris
