transition to main

[daniele favara]

ummm ... i forgot one thing ...

i'm already using an ubuntu-express like installer in my project, that
is an hack of the guadalinex liveinstaller (same source), i needed to

--->  gtkmozembed <------

that cames with python-gnome2-extras for two reasons:

1) it's  "buggy"  in dapper (segfault)
2) it's gnome stuff
