IMO gevent-socketio is pretty much a dead or extremely low maintenance upstream, we could try talking to them but its likely we wont reach out to a consensus, renaming python modules is terrible from both point of views. That said, python-socketio has no reverse dependencies so it would be somewhat easy to rename python-socketio to python-gevent-socketio, create the new package as python3-socketio to not have any confusion with the naming and set up conflicts for them. Who knows? Maybe gevent-socketio will get active again and add py3 support, which then we would need python3-gevent-socketio. If it doesn't it will get removed as python 2.x support will eventually get dropped. Cheers,
