Bug#637849: ITP: python-ordereddict -- Drop-in substitute for Python 2.7's collections.OrderedDict

[Janos Guljas <janos@resenje.org>]

Hi Sandro,

I was not aware that 2.6 will be removed soon. If that is a case, then
this is not needed. This package is related to #526350, but of course,
it is better without it if we have only 2.7 version.

Best,
Janos

P.S.

I added Faidon in CC as I already sent him a RFS.
