Subject: Naming collision

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Interestingly, both `python-snappy' and `snappy' are available on PyPI
(https://pypi.org/project/snappy/). These are two completely distinct
packages and in this issue I only package `python-snappy'.

If I understand the Python naming rules, if someone were to package
`snappy' in the future, both would be associated to the `python-snappy'
variable in Guix. What would be the best approach to handle this
potential naming collision?

Best wishes,

Troy
