So, under that logic, I should have named pysvn python-pysvn? That

the consensus. From now on, I'll make an effort to name things that
way, unless I hear a better reason not to (name space pollution,
lib-{package} naming in other distros, other historical reason that I'm
not aware of or privy to...).
I agree that python-pysvn seems redundant, but that is the fault of the
project creators, and is probably not up to packagers to correct.
Naming a python package with "py" in the name is redundant itself. But,
since you're going to have to "import pysvn", you might was well be
installing python-pysvn.
