As far as I understand it, the libraries mentioned by Benda are just some data type converters; they don't contain an importable module. The package in [2] is built on top of this library (but a package that is built independently), and this should ofcourse get the name given in the policy. The library Benda speaks about is not covered by the Python Policy, but a normal shared library that should be covered by the standard Debian Policy. Cheers Ole
