@ -1780,6 +1780,10 @@ The following rules are desired to be respected:
that characters should be converted to lowercase and `.` and `_` should be
replaced by a single `-` (foo-bar-baz instead of Foo__Bar.baz).
If necessary, `pname` has to be given a different value within `fetchPypi`.
* Packages from sources such as GitHub and GitLab that do not exist on PyPI
should not use a name that is already used on PyPI. When possible, they should
use the package repository name prefixed with the owner (e.g. organization) name
and using a `-` as delimiter.
* Attribute names in `python-packages.nix` should be sorted alphanumerically to
avoid merge conflicts and ease locating attributes.
