Under this name, it absolutely will get confused with Jordan Sissel's
fpm. I would suggest packaging it with a namespaced name: perhaps
fortran-fpm or something like that.
There was also an fpm ackage in Debian, removed in 2007.
This appears to have been a third, unrelated fpm (it was a password
manager), adding to the confusion...

Yes, I'm happy to change the name. fortran-fpm is ok with me.

Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase “The innocent have nothing to fear,”
believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term
even more from those who say things like “The innocent have nothing to fear.”
