Bug#807432: RFS: python-jellyfish/0.5.1-1 [ITP]



control: block -1 by 819016

Hello Giafranco,

thanks, it's been confirmed by upstream and promptly fixed on the
upstream repository [1].

> BTW, the Python policy is something like
> "python-foo" means "import foo" works.

thanks for letting me know about the potential Policy issue with the
package name. After discussing it at #debian-python [2], it seems that
the deviation would be acceptable, however it was suggested that the
conflicts as a whole would be better solved by renaming the *existing*
package:

<p1otr> there are 2 reported installations of python3-jellyfish on popcon - I'd rename the other python3-jellyfish now (module and binary package) and a then upload yours with python3-jellyfish name

> thanks, I'll wait for your action,

I have commented on #819016 in the hopes of discussing the new approach
with the maintainer of the existing jellyfish package, and I'll ping
you back once the situation is sorted out.

Again, thanks a lot,
