Bug Description

Binary package hint: gwibber

Gwibber from Ubuntu's repository doesn't include a dependency on python-glade2, but if this package is not installed, it throws the following error and refuses to start:
$ gwibber
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gwibber", line 55, in <module>
    from gwibber.client import GwibberClient
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gwibber/client.py", line 9, in <module>
    import gtk, gtk.glade, gobject, table, functools, traceback
ImportError: No module named glade

This is on a fresh Kubuntu 9.04 install.
