Description
MariaDB Connector/Python's source tarballs currently uses a non-description name for the top-level directory.
For example, I downloaded the following source tarball:
$ ll mariadb-connector-python-0.9.59.tar.gz
|
-rw-rw-r-- 1 geoff geoff 79194 Jun 8 13:16 mariadb-connector-python-0.9.59.tar.gz
|
Let's look at what the top-level directory inside the tarball is called:
$ tar -tzvf mariadb-connector-python-0.9.59.tar.gz | head -n 1
|
drwxrwxr-x georg/georg 0 2020-05-26 01:42 mariadb-0.9.59/
|
The name mariadb-0.9.59 is obviously not very descriptive. In my opinion, it would be more appropriate to use a name like mariadb-connector-python-0.9.59 instead.
