You indeed should use it, this is normally done by passing "--buildsystem=pybuild" to dh(1).

When debhelper calls, e.g. dh_auto_build, dh_auto_build calls all chains that support the build target. dh_python does, so it is called, and in turn calls pybuild to do its magic of figuring out how to do the build for your specific package at hand.

dh_python or pybuild
Hello, I am not sure if I misunderstand something or if the documentation is inconsistent. The PythonPolicy https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/ tells me that dh_python should be the preferred tool for packaging (https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/#versions) But the LibraryStyleGuide https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide tells me it is pybuild (https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide#Overview). And the DPT policy https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/python-modules/-/blob/master/policy.rst tells me something about git-buildpackage and gbp. So as a novice I am confused. Kind Christian
