The naming policy from a long time now is that all jupyter-related packages, which pretty much by definition includes ipython-related packages since ipython is part of the jupyter software ecoystem, have used the jupyter_ prefix. This was discussed on the mailing list [1] in 2015 and using this approach was the consensus. Further, since the split it has been the policy that all such packages go into devel:languages:python:jupyter. Recently there was a move to rename one such package, python-jupyter_ipdb, to just python-ipdb [2], on the grounds that we "we should not rename upstream stuff", and further the new version was pushed into devel:languages:python instead of devel:languages:python:jupyter. This is a massive change in both python package naming policy and repository polices, which if implemented consistently would require renaming and moving dozens of packages. It would also lead to a lot of ambiguity since whether a package is really an ipython package or a jupyter package is ambiguous and can change over time, which is one reason we don't try to draw the distinction right now. Considering how many packages this would affect, I would request we discuss it on this mailing list beforehand rather than unilaterally moving and renaming individual packages. I personally think the policies works well, and similar policies are used effectively for a number of other python package families (like django).
