The packages `python-restkit' [1] and `restkit-git' [2] should be deleted : they are both out-of-date and violating python packaging guidelines (I believe they come from an ancient time, when python3 was only a dream...) They are replaced by `python2-restkit' [3]. Whenever someone really needs a -git package, should he just create another, with the right name (`python2-restkit-git').
Why delete restkit-git if there is no replacement for it? Was it broken? How do I know how to create python2-restkit-git if I need it? Why didn't you create it yourself?

+1. These should not be deleted just for naming conventions, unless there is another package in conflict with it. I know the packages work since I use py-restkit almost daily. Since they've already been deleted, Baptiste, can you upload proper replacements?
