libxml2-python
« on: August 31, 2020, 01:17:45 PM »
Question regarding libxml2-python.
In the x86 11.0 repo there is a libxml2-python.tcz extension but looks to be for Python3.
Should this extension not be named libxml2-python3.6.tcz?
(e.g. same as for dbus-python)

I have a Python2 package that is depending on libxml2.
Not sure how it should be named.

For the moment you can name python-2.7 extensions "python-" and python-3.6 extensions "python3.6-"

@Juanito

Indeed 'python-libxml2' is the better name and doesn't conflict with the existing 'libxml2-python'.
Thanks for your help.
