[Python-modules-team] Bug#844587: python3-googleapiclient: file conflict with existing python3-googleapi

[Ambrose Andrews]

Package: python3-googleapiclient
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When I was installing newly arrived (in testing) python3-googleapiclient i noticed
errors arising from file conflicts with the already installed python3-googleapi .

(looks like this is the same upstream software packaged twice.)

I suppose one of them can go :-)
