Hello,

I am not sure if I misunderstand something or if the documentation is inconsistent.

The PythonPolicy
https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/
tells me that dh_python should be the preferred tool for packaging (https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/#versions)

But the LibraryStyleGuide
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide
tells me it is pybuild (https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide#Overview).

And the DPT policy https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/python-modules/-/blob/master/policy.rst
tells me something about git-buildpackage and gbp.

So as a novice I am confused.

Kind
Christian
