Given that package's job in life, I strongly doubt that we need to worry
about anybody using it outside of a Zope2 app.  In fact, I think it
might be a good idea just to fold the package back into Zope2 (I don't
recall why it ever shipped separately).

The transitive dependencies of another dependency don't need to be
listed:  the problem Yuppie was fixing was a set of over-specific
dependencies, now redundant in the new, egg-centric world of Zope 2.12.
I think another fix would be to move the Zope2 import to the top of the
list, so that its own, more specific dependencies would be installed
first:  however, I don't see much win over Yuppie's fix.
