[Bug 350562] [NEW] gdesklets requires python2.5 without package dependency

[Alon Levy]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdesklets

After installing gdesklets on a fresh 9.04 beta install, it doesn't run.
Trying to run it from a console (for stdout), I get a "bad interpreter python2.5" message
The easy solution is to install python2.5 minimal.

The real fix is to make gdesklets depend on 2.6 (which is installed by
default) or on 2.5, since right now it is broken - adding gdesklets
results in a non running gdesklets (because it relies on a missing
python2.5 binary)

Reproduce:
install ubuntu 9.04 beta
apt-get install gdesklets (I actually did this from the add/remove Applications menu)

Workaround:
apt-get install python2.5

** Affects: gdesklets (Ubuntu)
