Please consider removing libnet-twitter-lite-perl.  The current
twitter API is being disable this month requiring large changes to the
codebase (bug #702523), which are likely unacceptable at this point in
the freeze.

Note that this will also require removing its reverse-dependency tircd.

Thanks,
Mike
