Hi Tim, I'm not sure if the Debian Bug Tracking System forwarded 
messages to you from 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1041480


Does it fix your package configuration if you specify Depends: 
python3-h5py in your debian/control file?

Bug#1041480: python3-h5py: I can't use the debian provided python3-h5py as a dependency in my package because it is called h5py.-debian-h5py-serial

Package: python3-h5py
Followup-For: Bug #1041480

If your package does not specifically need the serial or mpi version,
then you should just use the common package python3-h5py rather than
python3-h5py-serial

Depends: python3-h5py

Does that fix your configuration?

Package: python3-h5py
Version: 3.7.0-8

Dear Maintainer,

I am developing a package that depends on h5py. It is predominantly used on 
raspberry pi, and other single board computers. When I specify 'h5py' 
as a dependency, it does not pick up the system installed version. I think this 
is because it is named 'h5py.-debian-h5py-serial'. This causes
huge problems because the attempt to build takes more than an hour and then 
fails on an rPi3.

How should packages that wish to the debian python3-h5py as a dependency 
specify this.
