Hi Thomas,

I am including the Python team to tap their expertise.

For those not familiar with the topic: We are referring to

https://github.com/lark-parser/lark

which is not in the Debian archive yet (packaging work is still ongoing).

When filing the ITP bug I decided to choose python-lark-parser for
exactly this reason although upstream seems to call its software simply
"Lark" in most places.

Later I became aware of

https://bugs.debian.org/945823

which says:

"use the name you import in preference to the name from the PKG-INFO".

That is why I decided to change the name to python-lark. But given the
PyPI name clash this is certainly not optimal either. So this seems to
be a particular unfortunate case.

Any advice is welcome!

Peter
