Bug#790591: gnome-python-desktop: depends on python-gnome2 which is deprecated

Hi,

gnome-python-desktop depends on python-gnome2, which is long
deprecated and going to be removed from the archive.
gnome-python-desktop should be ported away from it.

The way forward is to port your app to use GObject Introspection
bindings.

For more information on GObject Introspection see [1] and [2].

Please try to do this before the Stretch release as we're going to
try to remove python-gnome2 this cycle.

If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.

Emilio
