This definitely can't be a straight sync as the Debian package needs
python-support which is not in main.  The Debian packaging is certainly
nicer, but we have to make sure we're not dropping any useful changes.
You might want to check with the Ubuntu Server team (#ubuntu-server) if
they know of any possible issues with the new version from Debian.
Please resubscribe ubuntu-sponsors once there's something to sponsor.

Title:
  Sync system-config-cluster 1.0.53-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Status in “system-config-cluster” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Please sync system-config-cluster 1.0.53-1 (main) from Debian unstable
  (main)

  Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
    * Build-depend on python.
    * Build using dh_python2.
    * Use dh_pycentral instead of dh_python, avoids versioned dependency on
      python.
    * Drop Depends on esound (yay!)
    * Recommends: cman
    * Fix .desktop file to use gksu and X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true
    * New upstream release.
    * Cleanup patches.
    * Add build-dep on intltool for the shiny new translatables.
    * Add debian/patches/desktop-in-pot.dpatch: Add .desktop.in file to
      POTFILES.in to get its msgids into the POT file.
    * debian/rules:
      - Call intltool-update to update the POT file during build.
      - Add gettext domain to .desktop files to get language pack support for
        them.
  According to the Debian maintainer [1], the Ubuntu packaging is bad beyond relief, and he recommended syncing the packaging from Debian. The Ubuntu delta is insignificant, and the Debian package builds perfectly in Quantal (I just did it). Furthermore, I attempted a merge of the Debian packaging, and bzr wouldn't even let me do it because there was no common ancestor for the two branches.

  Changelog entries since current quantal version 1.0.46-0ubuntu6:
