Hi, I'm looking at packaging the python-memcached pure-Python memcached client library: http://www.tummy.com/Community/software/python-memcached/
I've opened an ITP: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=458608 And I've put together some packaging materials: http://svn.crschmidt.net/personal/debian/python-memcached/debian/ I've uploaded the resulting package to mentors: http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=python-memcache I've got one question that seems particularly relevant: the 'name' of the package is python-memcached, but the module provided is 'memcache'. The egg-info installs under: drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2008-01-01 23:27 ./usr/share/python-support/python-package/python_memcached-1.40-py2.4.egg-info/-rw-r--r-- root/root 1126 2008-01-01 23:27 ./usr/share/python-support/python-package/python_memcached-1.40-py2.4.egg-info/PKG-INFO-rw-r--r-- root/root 9 2008-01-01 23:27 ./usr/share/python-support/python-package/python_memcached-1.40-py2.4.egg-info/top_level.txt-rw-r--r-- root/root 1 2008-01-01 23:27 ./usr/share/python-support/python-package/python_memcached-1.40-py2.4.egg-info/dependency_links.txt-rw-r--r-- root/root 198 2008-01-01 23:27 ./usr/share/python-support/python-package/python_memcached-1.40-py2.4.egg-info/SOURCES.txt (I think this might be wrong anyway, but I'm not really sure.) Given this, what's the best way to proceed with naming the package? Should it be python-memcache or python-memcached? Once that's resolved, I'd love any feedback anyone is willing to offer on the packaging. It appears to pass all lintian checks, and I've tested installing and running it -- it's a pretty simple package (only one file is actually used) so I don't know how much there is to comment on :) Feedback welcome, -- Christopher Schmidt MetaCarta -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
