Summary:                    Get rid of CSWpython-rt package
Description: 
The runtime package is unhelpful. I'm getting into arguments with the
release manager who insists that my packages must depend on CSWpython-rt
instead of CSWpython. I explain that CSWpython depends on CSWpython-rt, but
then the release manager says "I REPEAT". I've been also asked if my
package really needs to depend on the CSWpython package and not just
CSWpython-rt.

But CSWpython-rt is not enough for any Python program to work. There's no
usecase for it, and it creates confusion. Can it be removed?

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
I removed 3 of 4 dependencies:

- mod_python has been rebuilt
- silvercity has been removed (the upstream is dead)
- pysqlite has been removed (Python has inbuilt sqlite support)

The last big one is ooocore.
