Hi,

I have a couple of (mostly library) Python packages, src:wxpython3.0, 
which was Python 2 only and has been recently RM'd and src:wxpython4.0 
which is Python 3 only.  wxpython3.0 had a subpackage, python-wxtools, 
which contained a few utility scripts.  wxpython4.0 can also provide those 
utility scripts, so I just wanted to confirm what I need to do to make 
that happen safely when adding a python3-wxtools package to replace 
python-wxtools.

1) python3-wxtools should Replace:, Provide:, and Conflict: 
python-wxtools, correct?

2) Should python3-wxtools even be named with the python3- prefix if it is 
not providing a Python library?  I'm thinking not.

Thanks,
Scott
