kdevelop-python is a kdevelop plugin, not a Python module.

The plugin is named after "python", not "python3", hence the current
package naming.  So no, there will not be any package rename.

There will not be any Python 2 version in Debian, since it used an
embedded (and modified) copy of python which is totally no-no
for the archive.

Thanks for your report,
