Bug#761124: debsources: proper pythonic package layout

2014-09-10 Thread Stefano Zacchiroli
Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: normal

The layout of Debsources as "upstream" software should be changed to
match Python best practices (provide a top-level debsources module, have
use setuptools, etc.).

This will make it easier to package Debsources, deploy it as a regular
Debian package, and upload it to the Debian archive to the benefit of
other distros.


Cheers.

Note (to self and others): work on this issue, and more generally on the
Debian packaging of Debsources, is in progress in the debian-packaging
branch of the Git repo:
