I haven't found anything in the naming guidelines which would cover such cases
naming a py3-only package. I'm maintaining some packages which are py3-only and
don't mention "python" in the package name. The packages are pure userland
software which include Python modules, but I don't split the modules into
separate packages. However, if I would do so, other packagers could use the
module packages, although currently I don't know about real use cases.

Well, it is in fact a python3 module with a "binary" on top. Indeed, it would
be less confusing to name it just "livestreamer", as long as no other package
needs the module part.
