I've checked tbb Git and have read:


onetbb (2021.4.0-1~exp1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium

  * Source rename following upstream. The new upstream Git URL is
    https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneTBB

I admit I support following upstream names in general.  However, the
lesson that we just are waiting for some package with name changes in
new for more than one month makes this name change a bit scary in the
current situation, thought.  Well, in case tbb 2021.x might bump SONAME
(which I have not checked) we can't avoid this.  However, if we might
have a chance to get a recent tbb without name changes quickly and could
do the name change later this would be helpful.

Kind regards

      Andreas.
