[Bug 459853] [NEW] timer-applet should not depend on the dummy python-gnome2-desktop package

[Gioele Barabucci]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: timer-applet

The timer-package 2.1.2-1ubuntu1 Depends on the whole python-
gnome2-desktop package. The package python-gnome2-desktop is a dummy
transitional package that should not be used, its components should be
directly required.

>From the python-gnome2-desktop package description:

  This archive contains modules that allow you to write GNOME programs
  in Python.
  
  This is a dummy package that depends from all the modules that used to
  be together. You can safely remove it from your system.

Right now the installation of timer-applet brings in unrelated packages
like python-gtksourceview or libgnomeprint2.2-data.

** Affects: timer-applet (Ubuntu)
