Hi,
gevent-socketio is packaged into debian currently as python-socketio and the python module name used is socketio.
I recently started to package another python library called python-socketio (https://github.com/miguelgrinberg/python-socketio) for debian and I'm facing the problem that it also uses socketio as python module name.
gevent-socketio seems older and more used but there is also a few downsides as listed here : miguelgrinberg/python-socketio#23 (comment) where I initially asked about renaming the module name ( miguelgrinberg/python-socketio#23 ).
I also see in debian, that gevent-websocket project which is packaged as python-gevent-websocket uses geventwebsocket as python module name.
Would you be open to renaming the module name to geventsocketio ?
I'd like to find a solution with both projects, upstream, so that they don't collide anymore in the python libraries namespace. Else I'll have to patch one of them forever on the distro side :)
What's your opinion on this ?
Thanks,
Fred
