[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Python module's name changed unnecessarily, making it impossible to express dependencies on it (#373)

[Adam Williamson]

https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/commit/2797d00ecd224a59a8ca967f40240e827ff31c69 was an awful change. Please revert it.

It doesn't matter that you've never published to pypi; so long as you install an egg-info file people will rely on its contents. I was expressing a dependency on 'rpm-python' for a fedmsg consumer that uses the module:

* https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/relvalconsumer/blob/d3ab5df439c3849558afb7502cae00ae991de4be/f/install.requires
* https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/relvalconsumer/blob/d3ab5df439c3849558afb7502cae00ae991de4be/f/setup.py

Only now that doesn't work, and I can't possibly fix it, because the module's "name" is one thing in F26 but another thing in F27. I need this consumer to work on both F26 and F27, at least temporarily, because the production deployment of openqa is on F26, but the staging one is on F27.
