Ok.

Considering pytest plugins aren't meant to be used directly, but by
pytest via the registered entry-point, using "pytestqt" over "pytest-
qt" for the binary package sounded unnecessary to me.

And yes, I do know there is a policy and I follow it closely. In this
particular case however, we would be breaking the consistency between
the naming of the other pytest plugins for no obvious benefit to me.

So given your criteria above, you would choose:

- python3-pytestqt
- python-pytestqt-doc

Am I correct?

Is everyone happy with that?
