Bug Description

Gnome wave cleaner (gwc) is overlapped with geneweb.

Firt, install gwc (sudo apt install gwc). Then, when
I tried to use `gwc` command, it asks to install geneweb.

After I install geneweb, when I use `gwc` command, it is geneweb
(genealogy software), not gnome wave cleaner.

Expected:
- When I run `gwc`, it should run gwc command.

Happened:
- When I run `gwc`, it ask to install geneweb (if not installed), or
  wun geneweb comman (if installed).

Ubuntu version:
Both 16.04 and 18.04

Hi,

I'm sorry, I just discovered this new Ubuntu bug.

Gnome wave cleaner should be run using /usr/bin/gtk-wave-cleaner

See:

gwc (0.20.02-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Changed name of executable to gnome-wavecleaner, because of conflict
    with geneweb (closes: 252621)
