We have syck, perl-YAML-Parser-Syck, so a syck-python package should

So syck-python should be moved to python-syck!!!
Regarding libxml2-python; The base package is libxml2. BUT, we shoudl
think about renaming this to python-libxml2 and do a Provides:
libxml2-python.

While we're at it, let's rename all mono packages to mono-<pkg>, all
java packages to java-<pkg>, and all C packages to c-<pkg>. That way the
user can focus on what's really important to a user (the programming
language of the software) as opposed to irrelevant things like its brand
name that the user can identify and recognize :)
Isn't the rule of thumb for this that applications use their own names
regardless of language, but supporting libraries/modules use their own
namespace?

MAYBE I said... OK. For gstreamer and libopensync it might not be the
best idea... But for MySQL-python, this would be a good idea - I think...
