The PythonPolicy https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/ tells me that dh_python should be the preferred tool for packaging (https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/#versions) But the LibraryStyleGuide https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide tells me it is pybuild (https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide#Overview). And the DPT policy https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/python-modules/-/blob/master/policy.rst tells me something about git-buildpackage and gbp. So as a novice I am confused. Kind Christian
