Renamed packages aren't handled well #93

Open shoyer opened 7 years ago

shoyer commented 7 years ago

I renamed "xray" to "xarray" over a year ago, but it's still indexed under "xray": http://depsy.org/package/python/xray

"xarray" still hasn't been indexed: http://depsy.org/package/python/xarray

Now somebody else has claimed the "xray" username on GitHub, and depsy thinks they are the main contributor to the "xray" project.

I'm guessing that the rename has also stopped the flow of citations and reuse, since nobody calls it "xray" anymore.

Anyways, this isn't a big deal, but though you might be interested in some feedback :).
