Bug Description

Ubuntu 10.10 amd64, awn-applets-python-extras 0.4.0+bzr1372-0ubuntu3

The "Clock/Calendar Applet" included with awn-python-applets-extras requires python-vobject to work, which is not in the dependencies of the awn-python-applets-extras package.

When python-vobject is installed manually, the clock/calendar applet works without issue.

If the user does not have python-vobject installed and tries to add the clock/calendar applet to their dock, a verbose error message is shown and the applet does not work. The error message does not mention the "python-vobject" package explicitly, in stead stating "The following Python modules could not be found: vobject" and providing a link to the Awn Wiki.

As the other applets work without it, I suggest adding python-vobject to the "recommends" section of awn-applets-python-extras' dependencies.
