Since Kup is born as a KCM module, I think I can name it

looking through the package list I can find six kcm modules, but they
are following different name schemas: the oldest three are using the "-"
separator (kcm-fcitx, kcm-gtk, kcm-qt-graphicssystem), while the newest
three use the "_" (kcm_systemd, kcm_touchpad, kcm_wacomtablet) which is
a violation of naming guidelines [4].
It is not. Quoting your link:
| packages where the upstream name naturally contains an underscore are

which is the case for the KCMs. (kcm_* is their natural name, it is how the
so files are named, and sometimes also the tarballs, when upstream is not
bowing to Debian's nonsensical underscore ban.)
The kcm-* naming convention comes from Debian. IMHO, it is incorrect.
