Technically you are trying to adopt the *source* package astroid, which is unambiguously expressed with prefix as src:astroid - you are not trying to adopt the *binary* package astroid. That's the root of the confusion. That said, yes, please go ahead - thanks for your interest in adopting packages, and sorry for my part in the confusion¹ Please - in addition to (not as a precondition) and only as a suggestion, consider renaming the package src:astroid to src:python-astroid, so as to eliminate future confusions between src:astroid (providing binary package python3-astroid) and src:astroidmail (providing binary package astroid). Kind regards, - Jonas ¹ I introduced the binary package astroid, unaware at the time of the confusion, and (as I recall) when made aware of the potential for confusion I insisting on keeping the name: I considered it more helpful for our users that we rename the source package of a library than to rename the binary package of a user-facing binary package to something unaligned with the actual binary executable. The former maintainer disagreed with me, leading to the current situation. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
