Most other languages have unified names for library/plugins/module packages in
Debian, which makes it easier for users and maintainers. Perl for example uses
libfoo-perl, Java uses also libfoo-java. For CLI libraries (CIL bytecode)
libfoo-cil should be used, e.g. libgecko-cil. The term "sharp" does
not represent the language, a CLI library can be used with all CLI
implemented/enabled languages like C#, J#, ASP.NET, VB.NET (click here
for the full
list), this is why the extension "-cil" is the right one.
