To sum this up, I updated straw to 0.26 and added the dbus python
bindings as sub_depends. There's no clean way to support this in
previous sorcery version (that's why there is sub_depends after all ;),
but at least the error message given if the python dbus bindings are not
there should give users enough info to figure it out.

The problem with pango.defs missing seems to have been a local
installation problem of pygtk2 on your end.
