Package: flit
Version: 4.1.0-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
The discoverability of "flit" package is quite poor, alike "furo";
the naming does not obey the rule of least surprise.
Many maintainers will erroneously pick up python3-flit-scm
that will get the job done; but will import unneeded extraneous dependencies.
I consider this as a papercut in the distribution and will fix it.
