Why does this tutorial here  requires gnome-python2?
http://freedesktop.org/Software/ProjectUtopiaBuildDebian
AFAIK, python-gnome2/pyGTK is not even part of the Gnome Binding project
(yet) and *most* linux distros don't ship with these bindings (let alone
non-Linux OSes).

Even if the python bindings are not really needed, there should be some more
discussion as to how BSDs, IRIX, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX and Darwin/PPC will be
able to run Gnome if HAL/udev/etc will be really needed by the core and no
fallbacks are given.
