Title:
  deja-dup package dependencies in 16.04

Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 amd64 desktop, deja-dup did not
  work with some existing backup settings.

  I discovered duplicity was not installed... After manually installing
  "duplicity", deja-dup still did not work (reporting error
  "BackendException") and I discovered I needed to manually install
  "python-gi" as well. Once these were installed, deja-dup began to work
  as expected.

  Listing the dependencies of deja-dup (34.2-0ubuntu1) in Ubuntu 16.04
  gives the following:

  $ apt-cache depends deja-dup
  deja-dup
    Depends: libatk1.0-0
    Depends: libc6
    Depends: libdbusmenu-glib4
    Depends: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0
    Depends: libglib2.0-0
    Depends: libgtk-3-0
    Depends: libnautilus-extension1a
    Depends: libnotify4
    Depends: libpackagekit-glib2-16
    Depends: libpango-1.0-0
    Depends: libpeas-1.0-0
    Depends: libsecret-1-0
    Depends: libunity-control-center1
    Depends: libunity9
   |Depends: dconf-gsettings-backend
    Depends: <gsettings-backend>
      dconf-gsettings-backend
    Depends: adwaita-icon-theme
    Recommends: policykit-1
      policykit-1:i386
    Suggests: deja-dup-backend-cloudfiles
    Suggests: deja-dup-backend-gvfs
    Suggests: deja-dup-backend-s3
    Suggests: duplicity

  As one of the popular backends to deja-dup, it might be helpful to
  classify duplicity not as "suggests" but a "depends" package (even
  though its nice to see other backends are also supported).

  In addition, the deja-dup package should include the "python-gi"
  package as a "depends" as well.
