Hi Ruby team,

About this bug,
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1133242

I'm leaning towards renaming /usr/bin/dotenv to /usr/bin/ruby-dotenv. 
This would be the easiest option and each implementation has different 
behavior.

Other option would be adding dotenv binary package to ruby-dotenv source 
and dotenv package declare a conflict against dotenv-cli.

If you have a strong opinion either way, please comment. Else I will 
proceed with renaming the binary in 3 days (after 26th may 2026).

Thanks
Praveen
