[oe] [meta-python][v2][rocko][PATCH 1/8] python-twisted: restore RDEPENDS on -news for py2

[Mark Asselstine]

Sorry, this should be 0/8. And apologies for anyone viewing these on
gmail, it seems to have merged things with my V1 series. Patches 1 and
2 from the V1 are the same here if you are trying to decipher the
gmail mess.
