The python-gtk dependency went away, so it's certainly true to say that
the version in experimental no longer depends on the unmaintained package,
which is what the submitter of #885140 wanted :-)

(As a result the GUI doesn't work any more (#946380), which I agree is a
blocker for upload to unstable - but it's a step in the right direction.)
