Apparently, developers have a strong tendency to not fix these bugs the
correct way and instead, to make packages depend on e.g.
python-gtkmozembed | python-gnome2-extras
Therefore, I’m probably going to make gnome-python-extras follow the
gnome-python-desktop path:
* the gksu2 and gdl modules will go in python-gksu2 and python-gdl
* when gda comes back (Gustavo is working on packaging libgda4),
it will be in python-gda
* let’s take that opportunity to ditch egg.recent away
Are people OK with this approach?
