    Description : Python library for managing UART devices on Linux

    uart-devices is a Python library designed to facilitate interaction with UART
    (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) devices on Linux systems. This
    library provides developers with tools to manipulate UART hardware
    programmatically, making it easier to integrate UART operations within Python
    applications.

    I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python team.

    Description : Python library for managing UART devices on Linux

    uart-devices is a Python library designed to facilitate interaction with UART
    (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) devices on Linux systems. This
    library provides developers with tools to manipulate UART hardware
    programmatically, making it easier to integrate UART operations within Python
    applications.

    If, as the above indicates, this is a Python _library_, then please
    avoid occupying the global namespace "uart-devices" but instead also as
    source package (not only binary package) use a python-specific prefix.

    Concretely, I suggest to use "python-uart-devices" as name for the
    source package, since that leaves room for the same source package
    providing binary packages for both current major version 3 of Python,
    and also other major versions and e.g. versions of pypy.

    - Jonas

    Makes sense, I'm happy to make this change.
