I don't understand this question. Where do you want to reuse the
"objects" (and what objects are you talking about)? Maybe an example
would be good.

Whatever comes with the pygtk sources is really the "official" version
and it works well for its purpose (generating the gnome-python
bindings).

Periodically I think that it may not be crazy to release it as a
separate package, since the .defs format is good for many language
bindings (it is used by a couple of others) and is relatively simple to
create for extra packages. I have an unreleased thing at the moment I am
working on where I used the .defs format to create the Python bindings.
But I have the same problem you do -- it creates an implicit pygtk
dependency for a package that doesn't use pygtk.

CVS or a released pygtk tarball.
