Executables in pydl



Hi,

I am currently working on packaging pydl, and the build system produces some executables using entry points defined in setup.cfg.

The problem is that for each entry point, two executables are produced, one for Python 2, and the other for Python 3, but with the same name and location (/usr/bin), thus creating a conflict if both packages are installed.
I see several possibilities to solve the issue:
- remove these executables, since users could use directly the libraries
- rename them (e.g. compute_templates-python2 and -python3)
- mark the two packages as conflicting, but I do not think this is a good idea.

What is your opinion?

Cheers,
Vincent
