Bug description:
  [Impact]

    * smartshine has an insufficient list of dependencies, so users
  might end up in a situation where required dependencies happens to not
  be installed.

  
  [Test Case]
  1. Install smartshine
  2. Verify that python-cairo and python-gi are installed.
  3. Verify smartshine starts without any dialogs with errors.
  4. Attempt to uninstall either python-cairo or python-gi (try one at a time). When attempting to uninstall either libarary, smartshine should be listed as "will also be removed".

  Before the fix, both libraries could be removed, at which point
  smartshine would print an error message in the terminal.

  
  [Regression Potential] 
  There should be no changes in package itself, only additional dependencies have been added. Thus, more packages are installed. 

  I was clicking around in the application and found bug 1702367 though,
  which is a bit more severe than this one. Even though it is possible
  to run the application, it won't do much. Note that this occurs prior
  to the patch, so it is not a regression.

  
  [Original report]

  In Ubuntu 16.04.2 when is installed smartshine from the official repository it does not start.
  If the app is started by the GUI there is no error , if the app is started by the terminal is shown a generic error "An error occured. Python or one of its sub modules is absent..."
  The error can be solved simply installing python-cairo from the official repository.
  ps: sorry for English not perfectly correct
