The naming guideline for python modules is ambiguous, so the name of py* python
modules in fedora are a bit inconsistency. Currently both pynetsnmp and
python-pynetsnmp is accetptable, this won't be an issue until FPC decides to
modify the naming guideline. 

See
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageNamingGuidelines#Addon_Packages_.28python_modules.29

Packages of python modules should take into account the upstream name of the
python module. This makes a package name format of python-$NAME. When in doubt,
use the name of the module that you type to import it in a script.  

There is an exception to this rule. If the upstream source has "py" (or "Py")
in its name, you can use that name for the package. So, for example, pygtk is
acceptable.
