It indeed gets us alomst the same result. May I suggest that packages
named a different way than dh_phpcomposer expectations get automatically
documented in /usr/share/pkg-php-tools/overrides/src:package so that
their reverse build-dependencies don’t have to mess on their own within
debian/pkg-php-tools-overrides. I’ve seen a few packages providing
/u/s/ppt/o/src:package recently, and I believe it’s nicer for consumers.

Regards

David
