Check pkg-plist. If it predominantly uses lowercase then using CamelCase
package name would be inconsistent. Otherwise, it's up to maintainer.
Sometimes one can consult how other distributions named the package.

cf. https://repology.org/metapackages/?search=abgate
    https://repology.org/metapackages/?search=lv2
