Is there a way to rename a package on pypi?
This answer will probably sound beside the point, but that's probably
worth noticing that renaming a distribution on PyPI can be a bad idea,
as for deletion of anything on the Index.
Please, ensure that no-one is using the distribution you want to rename.
If some users are using the distribution under its old name, then
releasing a new version of the distribution under the old name, with
documentation pointing to the new location seems a good way to have your
users not too upset too much.
Of course, if it was a simple typo in the name when uploading the
distribution, then fair enough, having a simple way to rename a
distribution sounds like a good idea.
Note to potential implementors of this feature in PyPI: please take
extra care of the rename mechanism so that it doesn't break for
end-users in weird ways. Having a distribution renamed might sound
straightforward, but probably isn't.
