Bug Description

Binary package hint: compizconfig-settings-manager

When attempting to enable the "Screenshot" plugin which requires the "PNG" plugin which hasn't been enabled yet, the conflicts window does not appear, and CCSM silently fails at enabling the plugin (the checkbox gets ticked, but it doesn't really get enabled).

There are two errors, one of which appears after the other is fixed:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/ccm/Pages.py", line 217, in EnablePlugin
    if conflict.Resolve():
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/ccm/Conflicts.py", line 320, in Resolve
    answer, choice = self.AskUser(self.Plugin, conflict)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/ccm/Conflicts.py", line 470, in AskUser
    cancelMsg_("Don't enable %(plugin)s") % msg_dict
NameError: global name 'cancelMsg_' is not defined

Another one, which I do not have the terminal output of, is to do with "ret" on line 321 of Conflicts.py

Um, this is a universe package, can't you upload it yourself?

With a sponsor hat on:
Has this patch been forwarded upstream? DEP3 tags?

Whoops, I didn't realize it was a universe package. I thought it was in main.
Silly me. I'm contacting people on #compiz-dev at the moment to see if it can be
forwarded. As for DEP-3 tags, I forgot to add them as well. *sheepish look*

Thanks for alerting me to all that. I'll tidy up and upload it myself.
