You're right, and I haven't noticed : import ovirtsdk4 is working.

Yes, this list of examples is a treasure, and I'm grateful to the
maintainers.
Alas, though we already have one DC in V4, most of our production DCs are
still in V3 for one year, and I have to maintain them.
So far, I have no clue how to add ovirtsdk v3 to my Ubuntu.
You just need to specify which version you would like to install, in your case:
easy_install ovirt-engine-sdk-python==3.6.9.2
Another point : is the compatibility between ovirtsdk and oVirt completely
obvious (ie 3 -> 3 and 4 -> 4), or is there any kind of backward
compatibility?
Unfortunatelly no, there is no backward compatibility between SDK v3 and v4.
