Package: assword
Version: 0.10-1
Severity: normal

If one runs assword gui with its dependencies installed but without a
full Gtk environment, it produces the following baffling error message:

$ assword gui '<some-string>'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/assword", line 11, in <module>
    load_entry_point('assword==0.10', 'console_scripts', 'assword')()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/assword/__main__.py", line 553, in main
    func(args)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/assword/__main__.py", line 327, in gui
    from assword.gui import Gui
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/assword/gui.py", line 2, in <module>
    gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 118, in 
require_version
    raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available' % namespace)
ValueError: Namespace Gtk not available

Installing gir1.2-gtk-3.0 resolves this error, but it's very difficult to
discover that this is the fix, since there's no mention of this package
anywhere in the assword package metadata.  I'm both an experienced Debian
developer and use Python regularly, and it took me several months to
finally hit on the right clues to track down this package, after lots of
wasted time installing random Python Gtk packages and comparing all the
Python libraries I had installed with another system where it was working.

Could this please be listed in Recommends or in a README.Debian file or
*somewhere* where people might be able to find it?

Thanks!
