Bug#224447: gdesklets: fails to start (import gnome.ui error)

Package: gdesklets
Version: 0.24.1-1
Severity: normal


gdesklets exited on startup with a gnome.ui error. This seems to 
be a pygtk compatability problem (to do with pygtk's versioning?).
Commenting out pygtk.require("2.0") at line 47 of of
/usr/share/gdesklets/main/__init__.py seems to get gdesklets 
to start up.
