We can't add pip installs to a package install so we have 3 options
1) The user installs the packages manually, no dependencies are added to
packaging
2) The tool gets rewritten to remove the need for the updated libraries,
adding dependencies where they are needed.
3) We add the packages to the PPA and add the dependencies to the mythtv
packages.

I've looked and the new minimum versions aren't even in Artful, so someone
will need to put together an updated package. This could be as simple as
taking the current packaging and pointing it at the new versions of the
packaging and building it, but I haven't looked into it.

I'm open to any of these solutions and if #3 is chosen will add the package
to the PPA.
