Before https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/iasl&id=cb3b242ff74d08dbd6ba351d6a439799bbf862ed, this package was mostly iasl, but not much of acpica tools. But now, it contains all of acpica, just like https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/acpica/ does.

I’ve asked for the removal of the AUR one, but I think it would make sense to rename the package in [community] to acpica and add provides/replaces 'iasl'.

People expect acpica as package name, and iasl is misleading since they are a lot of other tools inside. Debian name this package acpica-tools[0] btw, which is better than iasl, but I think we could go with acpica still.
