devito setup.py installs top-level package just named 'examples' into site-packages

[tjb900]

I would argue this should at the very least be called devito_examples or something along those lines? Same with benchmarks.

[mloubout]

Yes it is an issue. It is on the TODO list but we not sure how to proceed without completely breaking backward compatibility. It does need proper name change and/or restructuring of the repo.

[tjb900]

Ah, yeah - backward compatibility... One option to kick off the process might be to start raising a DeprecationWarning/FutureWarning when the modules are imported? Will happily submit a patch for that if you think it's a good idea.

[mloubout]

Yes would be the idea, just not sure how long making it a warning before moving it permanently. In theory people who have example installed should still have it after the move but is a bit wishy.

@mloubout was that related to the gempy notebook breakage?

[mloubout]

yes
