AFAIK python-devel is a virtual provides that always defaults to the perferred
version of python. IMHO we should not hardcode a specific version.

Are you blocking this review for an issue with the upstream code that can be
easy worked around? I have contacted upstream and sent him the patch, but if he
doesn't accept it I will not use it because of our commitment to upstream.
Nevertheless this should not block a review. It's a package review and not a
code review and as long as there are no security issues or severe bugs, this
should not be considered a blocker I think.

You don't need to have pygtk2-libglade installed to run cherrytree.

Fine with me.
