Despite being listed upstream as a "drop-in replacement" for python-
crypto, that is not how it's packaged in Debian/Ubuntu.  The cryptodome
package installs a 'Cryptodome' module, not a 'Crypto' module; the two
can be successfully coinstalled, and I see nothing that would prevent
them from being used on the same system.

$ python3
Python 3.6.5rc1 (default, Mar 14 2018, 06:54:23) 
[GCC 7.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import Crypto
>>> import Cryptodome
>>> 
$

The autopkgtests of both packages also pass fine with both modules
installed.
