Yes, that's exactly my purpose for depending on
‘python-pkg-resources’. What are you saying has changed? As far as I
can tell there is still the need to have ‘pkg_resources’ available
separately.
The ‘dh-python’ suite is currently detecting dependencies from the
Distutils information; the binary package has only “${python:Depends}”
which is then populated automatically. Is this perhaps a bug in that
detection? What should I describe to the ‘dh-python’ maintainer?
