## Issues with dh-python
...
In other words, we should fix dh-python to stop creating broken directories in this case, and do so before we start building against 3.15. I've sent two alternative MRs for dealing with this. The first one [5] merges the files, while the second one [6] leaves the metadata directories as they are, instead of keeping only the files that differ.
In the end, Stefano adopted a different strategy, which was implemented in MRs !97 [1], !98 [2] and !99 [3]. These changes cause dh-python to throw an error when a package would ship a broken metadata directory. These changes were included in the latest upload of dh-python (7.20261019) that was uploaded yesterday. And Santiago Vila has already started filing some FTBFS bugs for affected packages. The solution for this is to have more strict rules regarding what gets installed in the packages and avoid installing spurious directories (like 'debian' or 'build'), which were causing broken top_level.txt files. I'll be working on filing more of these bugs and sending patches for them. This is just a small heads-up that this is coming.
