Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b9a07

Package searches using underscores can miss stored packages, and catalog clients cannot identify the selected rebuild for a logical release. Correct both response and search contracts before merging.

Clients can list distinct packages and repository counts over the REST API instead of querying the database. The content list also supports collapsing rebuilds and returns base_version. Closes pulp#1358.

Added repository package catalog and metrics endpoints, plus ``collapse_builds`` and ``base_version`` on the Python package content API. The catalog includes ``last_updated``, ``ordering``, newest-first PEP 440 ``versions``/``latest_releases``, and ``name_normalized`` prefix/substring search (at least 3 characters). A trailing rebuild suffix is ``\.[a-zA-Z]+-[^.]+$`` (for example ``5.3.17.rhlw-00001-n0001`` groups with ``5.3.17``). ``latest_releases[].release`` is that suffix on the newest unit in the group, or empty when the stored version has none. Existing installs pick up access policy for the new actions on migrate unless the policy was customized.

Is there not a better way to define the filter parameters for this endpoint then explicitly declaring them in extend_schema. Could we use get_filterset https://django-filter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guide/rest_framework.html#overriding-filterset-creation?

We should put this logic in the PythonPackageContentFilter. See https://github.com/carltongibson/django-filter/blob/main/django_filters/filterset.py#L224

Comment thread CLAUDE.md

## Catalog `strip_build_suffix` and CI unit tests

CI runs unit tests with ``pytest -p no:pulpcore``. Collection must not import Django-backed modules (``pulp_python.app.utils``, ``catalog``, models, viewsets). Keep ``strip_build_suffix``, ``BUILD_SUFFIX_PATTERN``, ``version_sort_key``, ``normalize_package_index_ordering``, and ``normalize_name_normalized_search`` in ``pulp_python/app/versions.py``. The rebuild suffix is the last dot-segment matching POSIX ``\.[a-zA-Z]+-[^.]+$`` (letters, dash, rest of that segment; not hard-coded to ``rhlw``). Python ``re`` and SQL ``REGEXP_REPLACE`` share ``BUILD_SUFFIX_PATTERN``; ``catalog.py`` may import it. Catalog ``latest_releases`` keeps the newest ``pulp_created`` unit per logical version; ``release`` is ``rebuild_release`` of that stored ``version`` (empty when there is no suffix). Catalog ``name_normalized`` prefix/substring filters lowercase the input, use ``LIKE`` (not ``ILIKE``) against the trigram GIN index, and reject values shorter than 3 characters. Simple-index ``DISTINCT ON (name_normalized)`` must ``ORDER BY name_normalized, name`` so the displayed project name is deterministic when metadata names differ (``msg-parser`` vs ``msg_parser``). Without the secondary sort, ``ensure_simple`` can miss the ``msg-parser`` link even though both files were published.

Do we really expect bad data all the way deep down in the stack?
Can't we guard against that once when digesting a version?
Can a python package have an invalid version in the first place?

What are the actual rules here? It is not apparent from the examples.

Also it would really be nice to keep the versions pep440 compatible:
