Then there is the more specific naming policy for python packages which says the package must be called "python-$pypiname". It does not mention any exceptions (at least I haven't found any). In the above example the pypi's name is "gogs-client" and results in The issue with your request is the discrepancy in the package's PyPI identifier. Upstream seems to think the name should be "gogs_client", but uploaded as "gogs-client", except the filename is still "gogs_client".
Upstream sometimes does that, and PyPI does nothing to stop them. Such is the world we live in.
As I wrote on the request, "_" and "-" are treated the same by PyPI ecosystem. "pip install gogs-client" and "pip install gogs_client" are identical. So IMHO using "python-gogs-client" as the package name is equally correct as "python-gogs_client". If both names are valid (the name in eg. the URL and the name of the archive), should the other name then be provided?
