Bug#680978: gnome-shell-extensions package fails to require the unzip package

[Al Grimstad]

Package: gnome-shell-extensions
Version: 3.4.0-2
Severity: important

Many users have struggled with trying to down load extensions from
extensions.gnome.org. Typically they selected an extension but it failed to
download. This problem was traced to their system's lacking unzip. When unzip
is installed, the problem goes away.

As a band aid, I submitted a bug report to gnome to update their FAQ. They
accepted this. On the page extensions.gnome.org/about in answer to the question
"I'm using GNOME 3. Why can't I install extensions?" the sentence has been
added: "Some distributions don't quite package GNOME correctly. Make sure that
you have the unzip package installed."

The distribution in question is Debian Wheezy (testing). There needs to be a
dependency so that gnome-shell-extensions package requires the unzip package.
