Bug Description

When I use p-d-e's dependency detection, it does great if I write "import gtk" (python-gtk2).

But with the brave new gobject-introspection world, where I write "from gi.respository import Gtk" (gir1.2-gtk-2.0 *or* gir1.2-gtk-3.0), it doesn't detect anything.

I'm not sure of the technical fix for this, but it's going to become more and more of a problem as gobject introspection becomes more widespread.
