Luke Macken is working on a few python packages for infrastructure and has run across an unanticipated naming issue with python-pastedeploy and python-pastescript[1]_.

Our present naming guidelines [2]_ say to use the name of the python module when it is imported. The question is how does this map to submodules? In this case:

import paste.deploy import paste.script

This could reasonably be named python-pastedeploy or python-paste-deploy. Do we want to specify that submodules be named one or the other or leave it up to the packager?

For what it's worth, Debian has python-pastedeploy but also python-twisted-conch so they seem to leave it to the packager ATM.

Up to developer's discretion, IMHO. Look at what upstream calls it.
