You can. When it comes to distribution packages, we can maintain consistency of the package names referenced within the distribution. The point of this was to be able to use the names Python packages call themselves for dependencies. PyPI is merely a distribution center for such things. Fedora is another distribution center for such things. It's not terribly different from how organizations may have private Python package indexes that may use whatever names they want for Python software they build and release. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
