Graphite consists of three packages:

  * whisper
  * carbon
  * graphite-web

Whisper is the library - so it's called python-whisper.

Carbon is an Python Application, so it named graphite-carbon, because
is works mainly only with graphite(-web).

"package name: is it more a module or a program (ie, how a general
user is supposed to use the package)? if the former, the package name
it's ok, else it should be changed (and moved to PAPT)."
