I don't intend to package nor sponsor this, but here is a review:
Drop git- from the name of the GitHub repository.
Add a git repository to the SourceForge project also and push to both repos.
Remove the possibly non-free and or non-redistributable images in the
git repository. If they are actually redistributable and freely
licensed, please document the location where they were obtained from,
their copyright owner and license. If they are non-redistributable
then you will need to rewrite the history of the git repository to
exclude them.
Merge the two scripts into one supporting both versions of Python (or
just drop the Python 2 one). IIRC you can use the print function in
Python 2 by adding the line below. After that the remaining changes
don't look necessary, or can be made conditional with
sys.version_info.
from future import print_function
The first thing in the README.md should be a one-sentence description
of what the program does.
Drop the Google Code mention/link from the README.md.
The README.md mentions that webcamgrab.txt was taken from another
program, but doesn't mention the copyright/license information for the
file anywhere. While the SourceForge project for the other program
says GPLv3, the tarball containing the list of webcams doesn't mention
any license.
Change the GPL reference at the start of the README.md to mention
which versions.
The list of webcams is liable to get out of date, especially when
shipped with the script, it might be a good idea to have continuous
monitoring of the list, plus a way to auto-update it on end-user
systems.
Consider switching to the XDG standard for some of the paths:
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XDG_Base_Directory

When I run check-all-the-things in the source tree, a number of the
checks produce output that is worth reviewing.
