plr needs to build in the source tree, so the easiest way to do that is
to include it in the source. The same goes (or did go) for the others.
I'm aware that odbc no longer needs that and shifting it into a separate
source package is on my list of things to do. Some things just happen
by inertia until I get prompted to change them.

I'm dropping python packages (rather than making a new source package)
because I have never used python at all and can't support it and there
is another maintainer willing to take them on.
