They are the same upstream - `joystick` uses debian's downstream in packages dated 2005. joyutils uses the proper upstream. Regarding the big python merge request, I dealt near-exclusively with orphans in that request... J. Leclanche On Wed, Apr 30, 2014 at 3:18 AM, Felix Yan <felixonmars@gmail.com> wrote:

While the two packages may provide similar functionality, I don't see a reason to merge the two since I don't know either of them, but they look like different upstream.
Anyway, I'm not going to do the merge if you don't contact the current maintainer, this also applies for the big python merge request.
