I missed the python- prefix, sorry.

If you want python-bluez, it should be reverse, quoting from Debian
Python Policy:

A package with a name python-foo will always provide the module foo for
the default Debian Python version of the distribution.

So module (which name is bluetooth) itself should be in
python*-bluetooth. And I don't think second package is needed. Or is
there plan to rename module to bluez? I hope it is not :-).

Okay for me.
