Subject: postr: depends on python-gnome2 which is deprecated

Hi,

postr depends on python-gnome2, which is long deprecated and going to
be removed from the archive. postr should be ported away from it.

The way forward is to port your app to use GObject Introspection
bindings.

For more information on GObject Introspection see [1] and [2].

Please try to do this before the Stretch release as we're going to
try to remove python-gnome2 this cycle.

If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.

Emilio

This didn't happen for stretch, but only 25 packages still have Depends
or Recommends on python-gnome2, many of them already RC-buggy. We should
try to do this for buster.
