<p>
- As a special exception to the <package>python3-</package> and
- <package>python-</package> binary naming policy, Python modules
- intended for use with Django (<package>python3-django</package>/
- <package>python-django</package>) should add django to their binary
- package names to make it clear they are intended for use with Django
- and not general purpose Python modules, i.e.
- <package>python3-django-</package> and
- <package>python-django-</package> respectively.
+ Packages intended for use with Django (<package>python3-django</package>/
+ <package>python-django</package>) are installed in the same namespace as
+ other python packages for a variety of reasons. Many such packages are
+ named django_packagename upstream. These are then packaged as
+ <package>python3-django-package</package> and
+ <package>python-django-package</package>.
+ This makes it clear that they are intended for use with Django
+ and not general purpose Python modules. Debian maintainers are
+ encouraged to work with their upstreams to support consistent use of
+ this approach.
