Description

Having worked to get requirements correct, users find the recipe names are different for no apparent reason. WTF?!

And scrolling the recipes directory, looking for a clue, is a challenge because there are also libraries and misnamed items in there.

Its confusing.

Cleanup the names, and in p4a implement a lookup table for backwards compatibility. Or create alias recipes like pil.

Wrong name wrt Pypi

dateutil        is python-dateutil
mysqldb         is mysql-python       - this claims to only support Python2
ndghttpsclient  is ndg-httpsclient
opencv          is opencv-python
opencv_extras   is opencv-contrib-python
protobuf_cpp    is protobuf-python
pyleveldb       is leveldb
spine           is spine-cython

Conflicting Pypi name:

av recipe is not av package, correct name is pyav , av is a different package

Some oddballs, not clear how a user would know what these are (or how to use them)

audiostream
cymunk
pil
vlc

Libs that are not named libXXXX (perhaps all the libs could be in a different directory?)

freetype 
harfbuzz
ifaddrs
jepd
openal
openssl
sqlite3

https://pypi.org/project/av/ isn't the same we support under the av recipe?
