usb-creator cannot be installed in Kubuntu 9.04 (and 9.10 daily-live) because of missing dependency

[Justin Brown]

System:
Kubuntu 9.04 (KDE 4.2.2) AMD64
Repositories: Main, Universe, Restricted, and Multiverse enabled
Updates: security, recommended, pre-release, and unsupported enabled

I tried to install usb-creator with apt-get today
~$ sudo apt-get install usb-creator

It installed successfully, but I could not launch the program. It would fail to start from the K-menu. From the terminal, I would get the following error.

~$ sudo usb-creator
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/usb-creator", line 21, in <module>
    from usbcreator.gtk_frontend import GtkFrontend
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/usbcreator/gtk_frontend.py", line 25, in <module>
    import gnomevfs
ImportError: No module named gnomevfs

I fixed the problem by installing python-gnome2. This seems to be a missing dependency.

This bug is still in Kubuntu 9.10 (beta) as tested with a daily-live CD image.
