Since usage instructions say bsI need bs to be an alias for backslide

While ‘bs’ is not used by anything in the Ubuntu archive, there is the historical ‘bs’ command for ‘battleship’. On this alone, it seems like ‘bs’ would be ok as an alias, but I can’t help but feel that ‘bs’ is too short of an alias.

I’ll give a tepid +1 for the auto-alias.

The voting peried for this request has expired and there are not enough votes to tally.

@niemeyer, @natalia, @kyrofa, @mvo, @tyhicks - can one or all of you vote on this alias request?

Agreed that it’s not the best alias, but it is the one used by upstream. +1 from me.

Same here. Seems too short, but is not a well known name, and being an alias means alternatives can still exist if something shows up. +1 from me too.

3 votes for, 0 against. Granting the auto-alias. This is now live.
