Proposed patch attached for supporting Ubuntu fallback generation. Piotr - can you let me know what you think?
** Patch added: "pydist-ubuntu-support.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dh-python/+bug/1422433/+attachment/4322470/+files/pydist-ubuntu-support.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dh-python in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1422433 Title: installed packages should be checked first when generating dependencies Status in dh-python package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: dh_pythonX appears to go through the following series of checks when generating dependencies for python packages: 1) check package specific pydist overrides 2) check for package in dh-python fallback files 3) check for package using dpkg -S these last two steps appear the wrong way around (at least to me); we are transitioning a number of python-oslo* packages due to upstream switching to unnamespaced packages - however the check in 2) kicks in first, so we end up with the old binary package names in generated Depends. Also the fallback files are generated from Debian unstable, so is not great for Ubuntu first transitions.
