Hi!
I think I understand where you're coming from, but I fail to find a
reference in the Debian policy about this. Section 7.4 doesn't talk
about incompatible APIs, for example.
I was thinking of shipping python3-ulid's in a separate binary package
("python3-ulid-cli"?) to allow python3-ulid and ulid-cli to be installed
in parallel, would that fix this bug for you?
Otherwise how do you suggest we proceed here?
How different are the two interfaces anyways?
Thanks for any advice!
