Ubuntu package info is wrong - batbat instead of batcat

[christuart]

This is an extension of #1420 which was closed previously.

What steps will reproduce the bug?

1. apt info bat

What happens?

Description says:

In this package the executable and its manpage have been renamed from ‘bat’ to
 ‘batbat’ because of a file name clash with another Debian paclage.

What did you expect to happen instead?

• batbat -> batcat
• paclage -> package

In this package the executable and its manpage have been renamed from ‘bat’ to
 ‘batcat’ because of a file name clash with another Debian package.

Perhaps also:

• "another Debian package" -> the name of the clashing package perhaps?

How did you install bat?

This relates to info before installing bat.
