  * Add patch remove-outdated-versions-quit.patch: Disable logic bomb based on
    configured "outdated versions" - if this is enabled upstream it will cause
    specific variety versions to fail to start, and this is probably not what
    we want to ship.
  * Remove dependency on deprecated gir1.2-webkit-3.0 - Panoramio was the last
    bit of code to actually use it. (Closes: #866655)

    Variety 0.6.1.
  * Drop unused patch setup.py-install-requires.diff
