Python package gaupol: Namespace Gdk not available

[Pierre Neidhardt]

Hi there,

I'm trying to package gaupol (https://otsaloma.io/gaupol/), a subtitle
editor.

    (name "gaupol")

    (synopsis "Editor for text-based subtitles")
    (description
     "Gaupol supports multiple subtitle file formats and provides means of
creating subtitles, editing texts and timing subtitles to match video.  The
user interface features a builtin video player and is designed with attention
to convenience of translating and batch processing of multiple documents.")

    (license license:gpl3+)))

The build runs fine, or so it seems.  But when I try to start it:

    raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available' % namespace)
ValueError: Namespace Gdk not available

I suppose I'm missing a dependency but I can't find any reference to
python+gdk anywhere beside python-pygobject... Must be something else.

Anyone?
