No, it's the same package. However I'm planning to update it to a
much newer version, which I backported from using Java 1.5 to Java 1.4,
and this new version depends on Jython (for its Jython-related
functionality).

I've searched around and saw that several people talked in the past
about including Jython in Extras, so I thought this might be a good
time to do that. :)

I'm planning to push eclipse-pydev from Core to Extras, and to split
it into (at least) 2 binary RPMS, one of which will be 
eclipse-pydev-jython and be dependant on Jython.
