Package: python2.1-pgsql
Version: 2.0-2
The location of the PgSQL.py module is not consistent with the other Python
DB modules. For example, pygreSQL's pgdb.py is in
/usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages, but the PgSQL module is in
/usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages/pyPgSQL.
This means that it is harder than it should be to switch from say, pgdb to
PgSQL. You can't just substitute 'PgSQL" in code like: __import__('pgdb').
I've found instances where doing the alternative substitution of
'pyPgSQL.PgSQL' for 'pgdb' won't work due to namespace issues. To resolve
them requires changing the form of the __import__() call, which makes PgSQL
a special case to handle. Not nice.
Suggest that the Debian package installs PgSQL and associated files in the
same place as the other Python DB modules. This also helps get rid of the
absolutely *horrible*, hard to remember, and hard to type mixed cap
alphabet soup in statements like "from pyPgSQL import PgSQL". Instead,
statements like "import PgSQL" or even better, "import pgsql" become
possible.

The python2.1-pgsql package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
