I would be strongly against having "python3-foo" obsolete/provide "python-foo", that would break both packages and users own scripts.
I don't see how that breaks user scripts? Do we expect someone to rely on package names in a way that would also touch custom scripts? As for breaking packages, that is true. OTOH, I will be doing a conversion run on Factory to replace all "python-foo" with a versioned require anyway. (I intend to first replace with "python3-foo", see what breaks, then revert to "python2-foo" where python3 is not supported) I admit that i'm biased towards breaking things ;) Mainly for the sake of discovering *what exactly* breaks and if we actually need to have it. OTOH, maybe some rpmlint and submission checks are sufficient for this purpose and we can keep old packages untouched. regards m.
