Are the Python modules shipped by this package supposed to be
used by other software?
If not, they should be moved to a private directory.
If yes, then they need to be renamed or moved into a namespace,
because their are way to generic ("tool", "misc", etc.).
It is the former case. It was my fault because I did not read
carefully the Debian policy about Python.
I moved the modules to
/usr/lib/sequitur-g2p/python/<version>/dist-packages. After
installation I also change the main script so that it can locate
the modules.
Is this approach ok?
I'm afraid that dh_python2 doesn't support such layout.
I asked for advice on how to handle similar cases on debian-python@:
http://lists.debian.org/20130216120158.ga3...@jwilk.net
Okay. So I see the following ways to go forward:
B) Install the modules as public ones, but put them in a namespace
starting with underscore, say _sequitur_gp2.
C1) Build the modules only for the default Python version and install
them to a private directory (/usr/lib/sequitur-gp2/). But then this will
trigger #702677, so either implement a work-around for it, or wait until
it's fixed, or switch back to python-support...
I leave to your discretion which option to choose. B is my preference,
although it didn't gain recognition on debian-python.
Now some other business:
There are some tests, it would be good to run them at build time.
(Although at least some of them seem to only touch code that doesn't
even end up in binary packages...)
If I were packaging this myself, I'd use "0+r1668-1" as version number,
just in case upstream decides to make a proper release versioned
"0.0.1". But you can keep the current versioning scheme if you like it,
of course.
Did you manually edit the manpage? If yes, then "DO NOT MODIFY THIS
FILE" should be probably removed; otherwise it might be a good idea to
regenerate it at build time.
