I disagree. Citing the Debian Python Policy section 2.4:

"Packaged modules available for one particular version of Python must
depend on the corresponding pythonX.Y package instead. If they need other
modules, they must depend on the corresponding pythonX.Y-foo packages, and
must not depend on any python-foo."

This is the case for python-avogadro. Further python-qt4 ships an extension
for more than one Python extension module, so according to section 2.5 of
the policy, python-qt4 _must_ specify Provides. IMO python-qt4 must
re-add the Provides field.
