This is a problem that affects much more than this kind of packages. All
packages relying on an external service are affected. For example, it’s
hard to expect the totem youtube plugin to keep working for the lifetime
of the etch release.

If we find a solution to this kind of issues, it should apply to all
packages in this situation.
