Please remove them unless the packages will available in Debian
soon. Policy 2.2.1 requires that 'packages in main must not require or
recommend a package outside of main for compilation or execution (thus,
the package must not declare a "Pre-Depends", "Depends", "Recommends",
"Build-Depends", or "Build-Depends-Indep" relationship on a non-main
package)'.
