Please go ahead with the upload and remove the moreinfo tag from this bug once
the package built on all the relevant architectures in unstable.

Hi Release Team,

In the last few months I've prepared quite a few changes for variety, mostly
involving the removal of online wallpaper sources that no longer work, and also
fixing one fairly annoying bug causing menus to show up at the top left of the
screen. I realize this diff is quite significant, so here's a breakdown:

- The menu bug was reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/variety/+bug/1598298
and fixed in Ubuntu zesty with SRUs to xenial and yakkety pending. The fix
first landed as 0.6.3-2 on March 17 and no regressions have been reported
since.
- The disable-panoramio.patch was based off a similar patch from Arch Linux's
0.6.3-3 package version, and disables Panoramio sources which have been shut
down per https://www.panoramio.com/maps-faq. I modified further also migrate
away from any configured Panoramio, and this change has been in experimental
for 10 days with no regressions reported.
- Cleaning up after the earlier Wallpapers.net source removal from 0.6.3-1:
removing its dependencies (libjs-underscore, python-lxml) which aren't used
anywhere else, and also removing Wallpapers.net from the package description.
- Finally, patch refreshes and updates as part of maintenance: I've also
removed an old setup.py-install-requires.diff patch which was never used in the
build in unstable.
- The only change that hasn't been previously pushed is removing python-lxml
from the build-dependencies, as I forgot to include that with 0.6.3-3.

Attached is a debdiff between 0.6.3-1 (currently in unstable) and 0.6.3-4,
which I plan to release if this is okay.
