If you default to the py3 version, I'd suggest you use mkdocts-py2 or
python2-mkdocs for the py2 version.

Note: you could add a Provides: python3-mkdocs to the main package or vice
versa, make the package be named python3-mkdocs and add a Provides: mkdocs if
the usual name of the application (the one people will use when looking for it)
is indeed mkdocs (cf also the remark from Matthew I trimed down from this
email).

Well the python universe is still very much py2 but the future is py3 and we
should aim for it, so it makes sense to have both :)
