There is no need for an "informal" contact - we can also do it formally (== openly - thus I was CCing the ITP bug as well as the Python list).

I need to confirm that something slipped through by chance which was not really intended but is very related. The python3-jellyfish package of the DNA-Jellyfish packaging remained in Git since our discussion was stalled and recently - as you realised - a bug fix release of it came out[2]. So another maintainer of the Debian Med team upgraded to the new version and uploaded the package which is now in the new queue[3]. This was not really intended but now it happened. We now need to decide about the two options: 1. Cancel the upload to new and drop the python3-jellyfish package 2. Just leave this as is and follow the advise of the jellyfish author quoted on top of this mail to the python list[4] to rename just the Python module. I think option 2. is better for all parts and if you agree I'd immediately cancel the upload to new. Kind regards and sorry for the confusion Andreas. > [1] https://pypi.python.org/pypi/jellyfish/0.5.3 > [2] https://github.com/gmarcais/Jellyfish/releases/tag/v2.2.5 [3] https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/jellyfish_2.2.5-1.html [4] https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2016/01/msg00001.html -- http://fam-tille.de
