I am in the process of packaging python-pyinstaller. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1084906
Currently my source package is named python-pyinstaller. It produces two binary packages: pyinstaller - installs executables to /usr/bin python3-pyinstaller - installs Python modules to /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages I have been following the discussion about package names and have started to wonder if pyinstaller wouldn’t be a better source package name. That is what it is called upstream, and the “py” prefix already indicates it is related to Python. Beyond that, I was wondering if it wouldn’t be better to only provide one binary file. I don’t know if there is any value to the Python modules without the executables in /usr/bin. Is there any policy or best practice that says this should be split into two binary packages? Soren P.S. I figured I would ask now as it is easy to make changes before the first upload. -- Soren Stoutner so...@debian.org
