RequireJS - change jQuery module name

Question

I have a file called "lib.jquery.js" (all libraries are starting with "lib." and not reusable application modules are starting with "app.") in my baseUrl directory, and a module definition:

define([
    "lib.jquery"
],
function(
    jQuery
){
    console.log(jQuery) // undefined
})

But jQuery here is undefined because jQuery module name is hardcoded inside it as "jquery" but not "lib.jquery". How do I configurate RequireJS correctly to make all loading modules check "lib.jquery" file when requesting "jquery" or force jQuery module to be named "lib.jquery"?

The jquery script defines the module as 'jquery' and expects that you will simply reference it as 'jquery'. This is done because one should not load 2 jquery files of different versions.

Workaround would be put the lib.*.js files into a separate directory called lib.

define(['lib/jquery'], function (jQuery) {

});

I have found the solution here: Use requirejs and jquery, without clobbering global jquery?

Renamed file lib.jquery.js to lib.jquery-core.js
Created file lib.jquery.js with "jquery loader module":

define(['lib.jquery-core'], function () { return jQuery.noConflict(true); });

Now it's working as intended to. Hardcoding names is evil.
