(cc'ing fladi as Uploader of django-fsm and django-fsm-admin)

Hi,

I would like to package django-fsm-2[1] which is a fork/continuation
of django-fsm[2] which is already in Debian.

However I'm a bit unsure what's the best way forward. Both call
themselves "django_fsm" internally, so they can't be co-installed.
The only rdep of django-fsm in Debian is python3-django-fsm-admin which
seems to be very inactive upstream.

AIUI, there are two options:

1. Update src:django-fsm to use django-fsm-2 as new upstream. This
   might/will make python3-django-fsm-admin uninstallable or broken, I
   would need to test it. If so, python3-django-fsm-admin will have to
   be RM'd.
2. Package django-fsm-2 as src:django-fsm-2 and add Conflicts:
   python3-django-fsm to it, so they won't be co-installed.

I think option 2 would be friendlier to possible users out there and
also maybe more correct as it will match the name on PyPI.

I'm looking for feedback what's the best way forward as I have no
experience so far handling PyPI vs. module vs. package name
discrepancies.

Cheers,
sur5r
