Modules in the desktop are allowed to depend on the python bindings in
the bindings release set, as was agreed upon previously.  pyorbit is
not currently in that set.  If pyoribt isn't proposed, that may be a
reason to reject the inclusion of sabayon (unless, of course, it can
be made a soft dependency).  So this is yet another reason[1] someone
needs to make sure pyorbit is proposed.
