Bug Description

There is no dependency for the package python-glade2 in gdevilspie, needed at runtime.

More detailed information:

[Impact]
Critical - gdevilspie won't work without python-glade2.

[Development Fix]
Precise is safe, Debian has added depends on python-glade2, and recommended python-xdg in 1:0.5-2 (closes: #628492)

[Stable Fix]
Simply add depends on python-glade2, recommend python-xdg, according to debian changes.

[Test Case]
* If installed, remove python-glade
* Install gdevilspie (1:0.5-1)
* Run gdevilspie
* What you get:
$ gdevilspie
pyGTK is not correctly installed, exiting.
* Abort.

NAK on the branches. You have bumped to the same version in all releases. This will break the upgrade path. Please see how to handle having the same version in multiple release here:
