Ah, I didn't realize this at the time, but this bug is actually invalid
as PyGI isn't meant to play nice with static bindings like PyGTK.  It
was pretty much by accident when it worked before.

The pygobject version in Oneiric doesn't let you dangerously mix them
anymore:

>>> import gtk
>>> from gi.repository import WebKit
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
    from ._gi import _API, Repository
ImportError: could not import gobject (error was: ImportError('When using gi.repository you must not import static modules like "gobject". Please change all occurrences of "import gobject" to "from gi.repository import GObject".',))

Title:
  2.27.90 => 2.27.91 regression: AttributeError: type object 'Widget'
  has no attribute '__info__'

Status in “pygobject” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Came across this as I was working on dmedia.  This is a simple example
  that triggers it:

  ###
  import sys

  import gtk
  from gi.repository import WebKit

  window = gtk.Window()
  window.set_title('test')
  window.set_default_size(800, 450)
  window.connect('destroy', gtk.main_quit)

  view = WebKit.WebView()
  window.add(view)

  view.load_uri(sys.argv[1])

  window.show_all()
  gtk.main()
  ###

  The above works with pygobject 2.27.90, but with 2.27.91 I get an
  attribute error:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
