[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#656230: python-dbus: Recommends on python-gobject | python-gtk (<< 2.10) when it is very rarely needed

Package: python-dbus
Version: 0.84.0-2
Severity: normal
Python-gobject is only used in the dbus-python test suite and in
gobject_service.py. All packages that make use of the ExportedGObject
and ExportedGObjectType classes in gobject_service.py already depend on
python-gobject, so the only affect the recommends has is to cause it to be
installed in systems that don't need it.
Please drop to suggests.
Note: Barry Warsaw asked me to file this and he intends to address it.
