umh, you force pushed everything, master, upstream and pristine-tar

And still it doesn't build, if that was meant to fix it.
Without thinking of it I already overwrote the older files, so I can't

Then name made me wonder too.
I would like for somebody else on the mentors list to comment on it, but
also keep in mind that there is a python policy that says the name
should be python(3)-${module name}, that is, whatever you import.
