Title:
  Remove python-appindicator and gir1.2-appindicator-0.1

Status in libappindicator package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  gir1.2-appindicator-0.1 has no reverse dependencies (it is for gtk2
  GObject Introspection)

  After removals are processed for other reasons, there are only 2
  packages that recommend python-appindicator. It would be trivial to
  drop the recommends. Those 2 packages (deluge and gtk-recordmydesktop)
  are scheduled for autoremoval from Debian Testing in February because
  they use pygtk.

  $ reverse-depends python-appindicator
  Reverse-Recommends
  ==================
  * deluge-gtk
  * gpodder — should be fixed once 3.10.0 is packaged
  * gtk-recordmydesktop
  * sbackup-gtk — RM requested in LP: #1739800
  * winswitch — RM requested in LP: #1739797

  Reverse-Depends
  ===============
  * aws-status — RM requested in LP: #1739797
  * cherrytree — RM requested in LP: #1731725
  * glipper — RM requested in LP: #1739800
  * hamster-indicator — source is hamster-applet, RM requested in LP: #1739797
  * python-seelablet — RM requested in LP: #1740631

  --------------------------
  OTHER GTK2 REVERSE DEPENDS
  --------------------------
