(solved) Two small python packages - default installation

I noticed two python packages that should be included on the installation CD, notify-python and pyxdg.

Main reasons for inclusion:

Catfish can benefit from pyxdg at run-time.
Wicd-gtk can benefit from notify-python at run-time.
Parole can benefit from notify-python (build-time notification plugin) as well.

notify-python's uncompressed size is 57K, and pyxdg's one is 288K.

Why not (for me), but it's more Gapan who decide this.
Let's wait his return from vacation to have his opinion.

could these not be installed via update rather than adding them to the iso

Of course you can install them with slapt-get, but they could be added to a future 13.1.1 bugfix release.

OK, I see no problem with this. They will be both included in the next release, also the live CD I guess.
