I don't know python but IIRC for perl this policy was made for
libraries/modules and not standalone applications.

If your gui is something that the user is intended to run as a normal
application it should have a name like gnuradio-wxgui.
(people should find it with apt-cache search gnuradio at least)

But just ask one of the python (policy) maintainers or at the
debian-mentors mailing list, they can surely help you.

Package: python-wxgui
Severity: normal

Hello

python-wxgui is a quite nothing-saying, even misleading package 
name.

The package should be called gnuradio-wxgui or at least gr-wxgui.

python-wxgui suggests that this package provides the wx
cross-platform GUI toolkit bindings for the python language!

Hi Christian,

Yes, i was also in a dilema while naming the package. Debian Python Policy
suggests that any package which provides a module foo should be named as
python-foo. I simply followed this policy as this package provides a module
wxgui under gnuradio. Probably, it needs to be renamed as python-gr-wxgui?
or just gr-wxgui? Let us discuss. I make the changes, an upload for the new
tarball release which was released a couple of days back is due, so I will
incorporate these changes as well.

Thanks
