Bug Description
I updated to Ubuntu 11.10 Beta 1, and I can no longer enable gedit plugins written in Python. When I go to "Edit > Preferences > Plugins" and I try to enable such a plugin, the checkbox is greyed out. Here's the output on a terminal when I try to enable Snippets:
(gedit:19196): libpeas-WARNING **: Error initializing Python interpreter: could not import gi
(gedit:19196): libpeas-WARNING **: Please check the installation of all the Python related packages required by libpeas and try again
(gedit:19196): libpeas-WARNING **: Cannot load Python plugin 'snippets' since libpeas was not able to initialize the Python interpreter
(gedit:19196): libpeas-WARNING **: Error loading plugin 'snippets'
I didn't have this bug with Ubuntu 11.10 Alpha 3.

I noticed that's due to the new version of python-gobject package. Funnily, that package also seems to break apport itself (at least in my computer).
