Yes.  Please file the RM bug.

Reasonable.  Also both maintained by DPMT, so we can just pick.

>   (proposal: yes)

Actually, based on Python Policy both have wrong binary names.  The binaries 
should be python/python3-socks since they provide the socks module.  No need to 
rename the source.  I think transitional packages are only needed if there are 
rdepends that need updating and the can't be done now.

Definitely.  See above.

conflicting packages python-pysocks and python-socksipy

2016-01-04 Thread W. Martin Borgert
Hi,

TLDR: Both are the same, providing the "socks" module. We should
remove one of them. Maybe renaming the other to python-socks.

Longer story: Recently, I upgraded the outdated python-socksipy
package. This involved following a new upstream. Later I was
informed, that the new upstream was already packaged under the
name python-pysocks.

Questions:

 - shall we remove one of the package?
   (proposal: yes)
 - which of the two packages should be removed from Debian?
   (proposal: remove pysocks, just because socksipy is older)
 - shall the other package provide dummy transitional packages?
   (proposal: yes)
 - shall we rename the binary package to python-socks?
   (proposal: yes)

Any ideas or opinions?

TIA & Cheers

I don't know anything about twistar, but I do think Storm is effectively
abandoned.  I'm not sure twistar is in better shape, given that the last PyPI
release is 2013, although there are a few commits to upstream's GitHub in
2015.

I think SQLAlchemy or SQLObject are generally considered best-in-breed of the
Python ORMs.  (FWIW, GNU Mailman 3 core is Python 3 and was ported to SA last
year.)

I can't say whether it's worth it or not, but yes, there is probably time to
package it up and get it through NEW for stretch and xenial, if you can find a
sponsor (I'm not volunteering ;).
