Well, one cannot install python-beagle if the user is not willing to use beagle at all (it will depend on mono etc.), however the current situation is ugly: you can't know how to enable beagle-live unless you look at the recommends - and synaptic does not install recommends by default. In my opinion there are three solutions: put a note in the beagle plugin options saying that to have live beagle queries one should install the python-beagle package, or make a deskbar-beagle-live package depending on both beagle and python-beagle, or make a dependency from beagle to python-beagle because, I guess, an ubuntu without python makes few sense. Some opinion?
