Python package naming, "py"-exception only for source tarballs?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



During the review[0] of pyhunspell[1] some confusion came up. The current
python module guidelines contain the following:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#Addon_Packages_.28python_modules.29
| There is an exception to this rule. If the upstream source has "py"
| (or "Py") in its name, you can use that name for the package.

For the project "pyhunspell", the tarball is currently called
"hunspell-0.1.tar.gz". Therefore this exception does not seem to apply.

But the general naming guidelines allow to take the project name into
consideration:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#General_Naming
| When naming a package, the name should match the upstream tarball or
| project name from which this software came. 

Can the python exception please also allow to consider ther project
name?

Till
