Because kosmtic (#805308) also requires node-mapnik, removing it from Debian will make packaging that even more painful. The two unpackaged dependencies are header-only libraries, for which fairly trivial packaging will do. Despite not looking forward to maintaining more Mapbox managed projects, I'll package these two dependencies for the sake of mapnik-vector-tile & node-mapnik.
