Hi again.

Debian's packaging documentation requires the packages containing python3
apps to be renamed with a python3 suffix. I do so in debian/control file.
Now I can put that prefix to the source too or not. If I do so then I get a
lintian warning source-package-encodes-python-version but if I don't I get
a conflict warning.

I've renamed the downloaded tarball with the prefix because the build
toolchain expected it. But I left the extracted directory's name untouched.

What's the canonical way?

Thanks in advanced.
