Some time ago, FPC has accepted a change that says, that packages with "py" in name should be prefixed with "python-" anyway [1]. Since this only applies to newly created packages, we will have to cope with this, unfortunately. So my idea of handling this would be: > - all packages must have Provides: python-* > - packages that weren't prefixed with "python-" previously (pyserial, PyYAML), should also carry an explicit Provides/Obsoletes for the old name. > Sounds good? What about packages named without the python- prefix for consistency [1] with other distros ? Which rule should prevail ?

Toshio, will you propose that or should I?
