So, an update: Toshio and I found the new nautilus-python too, and
indeed it builds perfectly happily without eel.

It doesn't appear to actually _work_, though. The app I actually use -
postr - claims to do nautilus integration via a Python nautilus
extension. I can rebuild postr as well and it'll 'build' (it's
Python...) its extension and install it in the right place, but it
doesn't actually work. It's supposed to provide a right-click menu entry
in nautilus when you click on an image file, to let you open it in postr
(and hence send it to flickr). The menu entry never shows up. This works
in F11 (can't test F12, don't have an F12 system handy).

We can of course take the cowardly^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hpragmatic approach and
just send a bump of nautilus-python anyway; it builds fine (the patch
needs a trivial tweak) and would at least resolve the dependency issues.
Making it actually work could be, ahem...properly prioritized. :)
