Bug Description

Ubuntu totem-plugin have additional dependences that differs from GNOME package. Ubuntu totem have plugin named "Zeitgeist plugin" not mentioned in GNOME Project http://projects.gnome.org/totem/. Upon click on About button link offers URL on GNOME Project Totem homepage where this feature is not described.
Problem with this new dependency is that triggers zeitgeist-deamon and zeitgeist-fts processes under GNOME Classic session and does not stop this processes when gnome process ends.
This dependencies also triggers this processes in Xubuntu and Lubuntu distributions and its not possible to install totem-plugins without Zeitgeist plugin.
Fedora (17 Alpha) based totem does not have this zeitgeist plugin.
Solution will be creating totem-plugin-zeitgeist package dependent on libzeitgeist. (without totem-plugins dependency on libzeitgeist)
