Well, I sent the merging mail, but didn't get the answer that they couldn't be merged (differing severity) before I actually uploaded, so I marked it fixed in this version later. > 2.

I just unbroke what was there, and didn't look further. This PKG-INFO file doesn't appear in the salsa repo for the Debian packaging because it doesn't appear in upstream's tarball (git import- orig --uscan), and I just had a look and didn't see it in upstream's github repo either. Or did I miss it? > Other DMPT packages do not seem to do the same to generate and > provide this .egg-info file. I have now looked further : "git blame" says Ximin Luo added it (commit ab9d454b) and the documented reason is: "Add an .egg-info file so pip recognises it. (Closes: #880241)" ; so it looks like there was a valid reason and it's a nice contribution... If there's something to do to improve the packaging, I'm open to suggestions (and contributions!).
