Name conflict with plink from ssh clone putty
=============================================

We are facing a name clash in the Free Software universe and we have
to circumvent.

  1. The plink executable will be copied to
        /usr/lib/plink/plink
  2. A symlink
        /usr/bin/p-link
     points to this location.

So if you want to use plink with its original name just do the
following:  Set the PATH variable like

  export PATH="/usr/lib/plink:$PATH"

or alternatively set a symlink into a directory which is normally in
your PATH anyway like

  ln -s /usr/lib/plink/plink /usr/local/bin/plink

if /usr/local/bin is in your PATH.  This makes sure that scripts you
are using will find the correct plink executable.
