point package request to different package

Hi,
I am trying to solve a simple problem with dependencies of GNS3-GUI,

I get an error that:
"pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'gns3-net-converter>=1.3.0' distribution was not found and is required by gns3-gui"

It is not recognized because the package changed its name from "gns3-net-converter " to "gns3-converter"

I was trying to ranme this package in PKGBUILD ... but changing gns3-converter  "pkgname=gns3-net-converter" i get "no such file or directory" error.

Is it possible to make a pointer of some kind that would direct all requests for gns3-net-converter to gns3-converter ? or even better(worse) - rename an existing package ?

Thank You in advance!

Re: point package request to different package

It looks like gns3-gui and gns3-server packages both need upgrading to version 2.0.2 ..

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky
