the name 'art' is a very generic name, I suggest to use python-art 
according the source is a python library and a similar functionality 
could be also be provided by other programming languages.


The same is true for the binary package name, usually and mostly the 
package name is prefixed by 'python3-'.


PS: Please use reportbug to write your ITPs! It is setting all headers 
correctly.

From the package name, I gather that this is a collection of art pieces.
From the package description, I gather it is a collection of ASCII art pieces.

Since such collection is probably not "complete", the genetic name seems a bit 
pretentious.

If the package is not a collection of art pieces, would you consider a more 
specific name for both the source and binary packages, like "python-art" (resp 
"python3-art"), as mandated by the python policy?
