Bug#845960: x-tile: depends on python-gnome2 which deprecated

[biebl@debian.org]

Source: x-tile
Version: 2.5-3
Severity: important

Hi,

x-tile depends on python-gnome2 or python-gconf, or has a
build-dependency on one those packages. Those are built from
gnome-python which is long deprecated and going to be removed from
the archive. x-tile 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 gnome-python this cycle.

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