Package: python-gnome
Version: 0.6.0-1
If I try to install python-gnome or python-gdk-imlib (using apt), I get the
message:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
python-gnome: Depends: python-gtk (>= 0.6.0-1 ) but 0.6.0-1 is installed
I emailed the apt folks, and they told me it was a problem with python-gtk's
control files. In response to bug #36283:
>This is a known and fixed bug, there is a typo in the package headers that
>APT does not like, there is an extra space after the version number.

Is possible that this typo could be corrected? At the moment I'm hacking
around it by editing apt's available lists, which is..um..rather tedious.
