In the new patches I'm about to send, I updated them. Alas even their
latest versions still require python-prompt-toolkit <=2.1, so I had to
pin the dependencies. I did it in a cleaner way, though.

If one dependency is OK with python-prompt-toolkit in version 3, but a
package has an implicit dependency on python-prompt-toolkit in version
2, then we either have to pin them all to version 2, and the OK
dependency does not get to envoy the update, or we have to resort to this.

I did it because python-ipython (19 dependents) is OK with
the update, and I did not want to pin it (and all its dependents) to 
python-prompt-toolkit-2.

This is my first time making such an involved update, so I'm open to
suggestions as to alternative ways of doing this.
