I could take over alternatives and bzip2.

It seems our alternatives is a subset of upstream

    https://github.com/fedora-sysv/chkconfig

I will need to look on the details of the implementation.
I think to remember that upstream went for a road not feasible for us,
but last I looked was long time ago, and I could remember totally wrong.

Nice to have for alternatives is to manage in some ways also DLLs
so for me to remove the Lapack PATH hack.

Is anyone looking at QT5 and QT6 ?
