clone 886291 -1 retitle -1 python3-pycryptodome should provide module name 'Crypto' thanks
Hello, Bug #886291 is entitled "python3-pycryptodome contains pycryptodomex instead of pycryptodome", which I think is no longer the case. On the title alone, I think the issue could be closed. I've tried to follow the multi-year discussion in the bug but I don't understand all the nuances or whether all the issues discussed are addressed or not, so I have not closed it, in case I mask some other remaining issues. Someone with better expertise than me could usefully rename the bug, and/or clone out any separate issues. One particular nuance that is definitely not addressed: We've removed python3-crypto from the archive because it is superseded by pycryptodome[1], but the pycryptodome packages do not implement a compatibly-named module "Crypto", so programs which call "import Crypto" fail. In-archive things may have been changed over to import the Cryptodome module name instead, but not all external software has. It's also a deviation from "pure" upstream, since pycryptodome via PIP or similar will provide the Crypto module name. So, I'm cloning out that particular issue.
