This also happens when I run 'from pybackpack import gui' from within the python
interpreter.  Sadly I'm not a python hacker ATM, so other help on how to debug
this is appreciated.  

Ensuring app-backup doesn't lose any bugs.

Backup bugs for evaluation by app-backup team.

I've tested and commited 0.4.2 to CVS. Thanks for the submission.

For future submissions, could you please try hard to find all dependancies of a
package? pybackpack had me stymied for a while with a python import of
'nautilusburn' that I didn't have on my system. I did eventully find it - it's
moved between gnome packages a few times, and I've put that package into the
dependancies for pybackpack.
