I tried to create a proper patch for this change; while doing so I
realized that there is already a patch in the source package that
touches exactly these lines but it's not applied (technically it's
applied but it only creates another patch file that doesn't get
applied).

I've now fixed the original patch (s. attachment); could someone who
knows more about python and gnome take a look at it and test it?

Cheers,
gregor
