There are three ebdb-* packages in elpa that depend on external packages
that are only found in melpa. I didn't realize that elpa packages
couldn't require melpa packages, though I suppose that makes sense.

I can push patches to all three packages using Stefan's (when t ...)
trick right now.

I'm also curious why this didn't break right away.

Sorry for making a mess.
