If you install a lot of OTHER python programs which have official
dependencies for dbus and conic under python, they would have already
been pulled in on your device.

If you start with a freshly flashed tablet, it will contain few if any
python modules.

If you try to install Penguin TV on an empty tablet, it will not run
and fail silently (unless started from xterm where you can see it
complain about not finding dbus, conic, whatever).

It merely needs to have the python modules it depends upon listed in
the dependency section of the control file of the .deb package so the
application manager will install those automatically when it installs
Penguin TV.

There is no problem in the program itself, merely the dependency
metadata in the package.
