I know what naming guideline states, I don't intend to oppose this review
request. actually the naming of python modules in fedora is a bit
inconsistency.


yum list python-py\* , you'll find it also exists many packages. Since most py*
modules in pypi don't include py in their namespace, excluding python in
package name is reasonable under most circumstance, things became much worse
when you look at *py or *python packages in fedora.

I'll suggest python-SIG to state more clearly on python modules naming scheme.
