oh and for that part:
bittornado-gui only provides scripts, and has no modules, so
python-support does nothing with that, you only need to add 'python' to
the depends, because those binaries uses #! /usr/bin/python. (and here
you *have* $need_python set to 1, see other mail with the patch)
bittornado comes with modules, and needs python-support. Though it
does not get python yet because of a regression.
So again, there is nothing serions, depends are correct, just a bit
weak. I suppose josselin will fix that soon
