Freeze exception for gdesklets/gdesklets-data



Hi Release Team:

I'd like to ask for freeze exception for gdesklets and gdesklets-data.

The latest gdesklets changelog reads:

> gdesklets (0.36-3) unstable; urgency=low
>
>  [ Loic Minier ]
>  * Drop duplicate libglib2.0-dev build-dep. Closes: #471207.
>
>  [ Emilio Pozuelo Monfort ]
>  * Improve long description. Closes: #481242.
>
>  [ Deng Xiyue ]
>  * Add 20_gdesklets-05-shift-f10.diff to fix trayicon not responding after
>    adding any applets.  Grabbed from LP bug #229506.  LP: #197991

This bug can be at least marked as important if filed against BTS.  It'll be
a big benefit for its users to have it in Lenny.

>  * Drop unnecessary clean up code in debian/rules.  dh_pysupport should have
>    it handled.  Thanks Loïc Minier for suggestion.
>  * Use XS-Python-Version: all.  There's no indication that it depends on any
>    specific Python version.

Other changes are of less importance, but makes the package more clean.

The latest gdesklets-data changelog reads:

> gdesklets-data (0.35.6-3) unstable; urgency=low
>
>   * Drop python-xml dependency due to being obsolete, and the equivalent
>     parts are already in Python standard library.  (Closes: #468600)
>   * Move Homepage from Description to source stanza.
>   * Convert copyright file encoding to UTF-8, and add copyright notice.

This fix is one of the Release Goal.

>   * Fix recommends as per Release Goal:  Remove python-imaging, xmms and
>     python-xmms from Recommends.  (Closes: #468396, #474753)

This one as well.

>   * Suggests cups-client instead of cupsys-client as it has been renamed.
>   * Drop `set -x` from install_desklet.
>   * Mention obsolete and fix renamed packages in README.Debian.
>   * Update Standard-Version to 3.8.0.  No changes needed.
>

Others are package clean-up.

As there's not dramatic changes, and they either fix important bug or for
release goal, I guess they meet the freeze exception requirement.  Now they
are in their 9th days in sid without further bug report on those fixes, so I'd
like to ask for their freeze exceptions.  Thanks.
