Oh, I see. Some time ago, FPC has accepted a change that says, that packages 
with "py" in name should be prefixed with "python-" anyway [1]. Since this only 
applies to newly created packages, we will have to cope with this, 
unfortunately. So my idea of handling this would be:
- all packages must have Provides: python-*
- packages that weren't prefixed with "python-" previously (pyserial, PyYAML), 
should also carry an explicit Provides/Obsoletes for the old name.
Sounds good?

Toshio already proposed a guidelines solution for this [2], but now that I look 
at it, it seems that it never got proposed to FPC. Toshio, will you propose 
that or should I? I guess we can do this regardless of the change I'm proposing 
now.
