Unfortunately, it is not fully functional.  For some unknown reason a
large number methods is missing in the gwy Python module, maybe it has
something to do with finding symbols in dynamicaly loaded libraries on
MS Windows, but this is just a guess.  Jan Horak has been looking into
this problem, with no success yet...

To install Gwyddion with pygwy enabled on Ubuntu, check if it has a
Gwyddion package and if it includes pygwy.  I suppose the package Jan
Beyer makes for Debian will, but I have no idea how long it will take to
appear in Ubuntu.

So, you might need to compile Gwyddion yourself.  The user guide
instructions still apply.  Additionally, you need to have
python-gtk2-dev installed to build pygwy (the feature list printed by
configure must say the python interface is enabled).
