Hello everyone,

I wan't to add a package in d:l:p, python-gmp2 which is maintained, and provides more functions like support for MPFR but a drop-in replacement for python-gmp as it provides same libraries name/function.

My idea is to upload package and remove python-gmp. Doesit would pose problem to someone ?

Note that a unversioned Provides of another package name is generally considered evil, as it kills versioned requires.

(It would be much nicer if python packages would autogenerate "module" dependencies like with perl or ruby, so that other packages could require module names instead of a package names.)

Cheers, Michael.

Unfortunately, it's not the case :-( . Maybe later I hope.

Thanks for every answers.
