Bug Description

For some reason, gnome-python-desktop does not build some modules on amd64. Most notably gnomeapplet, on which quite some applets depend.

Host OS: Jaunty (9.04) Alpha 1 + all updates as of posting date

I get the same "No module named gnomeapplet" error after

 apt-get install service-discovery-applet

and trying to use the Zeroconf Discovery Applet (same as Bug 304471).

In Hardy and Intrepid, it is in python-gnome2-desktop, as can be seen from http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/amd64/python-gnome2-desktop/filelist and http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/amd64/python-gnome2-desktop/filelist.

That and other files disappeared with Jaunty: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/amd64/python-gnome2-desktop/filelist

The code at /usr/share/doc/python-gnome2-desktop/examples/applet/applet.py still expects it. As Kai suggests, it seems that we may just have a b0rked package in Jaunty.

Tried a rebuild in my local pbuilder and the modules are built. Maybe a simple rebuild will do the trick.

Confirmed that a local build resolves the missing file.

Not sure of all is working, though. I'm having a problem with the Zeroconf Discovery Applet hanging when I try to add it to the panel.

Strike the last part. Works after a restart. So just confirming that a local rebuild does fix the package, and we need to get one done for the repositories.
