If I may ask, what is the rationale for renaming sip binary and modules to sip418?

I would like to use this package to build seexpr but because of this renaming scheme I have to patch a lot of build files to make it work (e.g. import sipconfig -> import sipconfig418.

Since sip is only for build dependency for other packages, could we drop the renaming and add provide=({python{,2}-,}sip=4.18.1) conflict=({python{,2}-,}sip).

Also there are some leftover python3.5 path that wasn't renamed after latest patch.
