Bug#774141: kdevelop-python should be renamed kdevelop-python3
Package: kdevelop-python Version: 1.7.0-1 https://packages.debian.org/sid/kdevelop-python gives the description of this package as Python 3 plugin for KDevelop. Normally IIUC python3 related packages are marked as python3 and not just as python. I submit that it would be advisable to rename the package as kdevelop-python3 and instead package the Python 2 plugin as kdevelop-python. (Should I report a separate bug asking for Py 2 plugin?) Downstream Kubuntu has already independently packaged the Python 2 plugin as kdev-python since last two releases (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=kdev-pythonsearchon=names), and is also now inheriting the kdevelop-python package from Debian (http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/vivid/kdevelop-python) which leads to an infelicitous naming situation there i.e. kdev-python for Py 2 vs kdevelop-python for Py 3. While I am going to report a separate bug downstream to align with Debian on the naming issue, I believe Debian should also rename the kdevelop-python package to kdevelop-python3 to make way for kdevelop-python for a Py 2 package.

Normally IIUC python3 related packages are marked as python3 and not just as python. kdevelop-python is a kdevelop plugin, not a Python module. I submit that it would be advisable to rename the package as kdevelop-python3 The plugin is named after python, not python3, hence the current package naming. So no, there will not be any package rename. and instead package the Python 2 plugin as kdevelop-python. (Should I report a separate bug asking for Py 2 plugin?) There will not be any Python 2 version in Debian, since it used an embedded (and modified) copy of python which is totally no-no for the archive.
