LyX is being conflicted in the python package, I've asked about that and
was told that this conflict will be removed and received an incomplete
explanation, something about non-version dependency.
To the best of my knowledge LyX only needs python 1.5.2 and since it's
the minimum version everywhere there is no real reason to do any
dependency.

p.s. while I'm not the maintainer I'm helping the Jules (the real
maintainer) with the package as I'm also one of the upstream authors.
