[Bug 1588199] Re: tp-smapi/speakout: testing now repeatedly failing attempting to install packages

[Martin Pitt]

This is because tp-smapi and speakup sources lack a "Package-List:"
entry in "apt-cache showsrc". These two packages haven't changed between
oneiric and xenial (tp-smapi), or between oneiric and wily (speakup), so
it's plausible that before precise some dpkg or Launchpad change caused
Package-Lists: to get added.
