Summary:                    gnome_pythone is overpackaged
Description: 
During my attempts to install gnome_python.  I am somewhat shocked that
there are package requirements such as: firefox, nautilus, etc.  

If one is writing gnome applets in python, it's hard to comprehend why one
need an entire web browser or file browser installed as well.  if there is
a subset of that package that is required, perhaps that should be broken
out into a run time or base package.  In such a way the entire package does
not need to be installed.

Off my soap box now.
Cheers

This should be under the gnome_python paackage issues list, not here under
pygtk
