Yep, the naming convention is inconsistency, no guideline object this. But more
*py packages add python before module names.

When considering python3 naming guideline, It'll be better to add python before
$NAME to keep consistency with python3.

>From naming guideline:
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. 


I think if py* packages don't have py in their namespace, then we can omit
python( e.g. pygtk2), in other case, adding python will be more appropriate.
