If you go into cleanup & renaming mode, please add a '-' between python
and the version, so it is consistent with the way versionned names have
been done in the distribution for a long time.

For example, I see we have a 
java-1.8.0-openjdk
java-11-openjdk
java-latest-openjdk

As you see the magic '-' makes it possible to use non-numeric version
qualifiers later without breaking naming conventions.
