I'm not the maintainer (I just posted the review to start the rename reviewing
going) so I don't know exactly why this is necessary (hopefully Matthias will
chime in soon), but I will point out that this was the way that it was done
when the package was called elisa.  I believe this split also mirrors the way
gstreamer is split: gstreamer, gstreamer-plugins-good, -plugins-bad etc.
