That breaks common knowledge and conventional project names. This happened with pyqt: python2-qt python-qt Those look absolutely nothing like 'PyQt', which is the project name. We worked around this for a while using 'PyQt:' in the description so that it'd come up in searches for 'pyqt'. You could also provide for it in both, but that would still be a workaround. Andrea has since repackaged them as 'python2-pyqt' and simply 'pyqt', which looks, sounds and feels much better. >> However, it would be nice if we could have consistent maning across all the >> packages at the end of the python 3.3.0 rebuild. > > I prefer the first, we have the same case with lua and we should let > program name be the last upstream "stable" version. > Python is python 3, python 2 is dying (hardly) and I hope move from > python 3 to python 4 will be smooth. > > Cheers, > > -- > Sébastien "Seblu" Luttringer > www.seblu.net -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1
