Actually the thing that doesn’t work anymore is to do “import gobject”
together with a “from gi.repository import Something” syntax.

This is very bad because for example in all python-nautilus examples you
have things like that:
        import gconf
        from gi.repository import Nautilus, GObject
… which obviously don’t work anymore.

We will have to keep this bug open until all rdeps have been fixed, and
this will need Breaks for all affected ones.

Thanks for your report anyway,
