So on the one hand not filing these issues against "python3-gitlab _OR_ python3-diskcache" but against "python3-gitlab _AND_ python3-diskcache". And I'm filing this a wishlist bug against lintian as well. I'd say any file … * directly in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/docs/ should cause at least a warning or even an error. * in a subdirectory of /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/docs/ which is starting with an underscore ("_") should probably get a warning or at least a pedantic warning. * And maybe for shipping any file in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/docs/ext/ as well. * And according to #947264, #998820 and #973627 maybe also /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/examples/, /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/scripts/ and /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/benchmarks/. This likely is an expansion of the what python-module-has-overly-generic-name already reports. python-module-has-overly-generic-name is part of the data/archive/auto-rejection.yaml and since both packages, python3-diskcache as well as python3-gitlab seem to have no lintian overrides, the tag seems not to have been triggered by these packages. Then again, a local lintian run does not confirm this, at least not for python3-gitlab: $ lintian python3-gitlab_2.10.1-1_all.deb python3-diskcache_5.2.1-2_all.deb E: python3-gitlab: python-module-has-overly-generic-name usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/docs/__init__.py (docs) I: python3-diskcache: […] So I wonder how python3-gitlab could get into the archive. Or is data/archive/auto-rejection.yaml not in sync with the list that ftp-masters actually use for lintian-based rejections? (JFTR: I checked git HEAD of lintian, i.e. commit b996cbba, not the actual package in unstable.) -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (110, 'experimental'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'buildd-experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.15.0-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages python3-gitlab depends on: ii python3 3.9.8-1 ii python3-requests 2.25.1+dfsg-2 ii python3-requests-toolbelt 0.9.1-1 python3-gitlab recommends no packages.
