Details

I know its an orphan, but whoever was responsible for this one needs a wrist slap.

- file conflicts with extra/gnome-python-desktop
- downloaded ubuntu packages when tarballs are freely available at www.pygtk.org/
- installed dependencies just to extract the spurious debian packages
- incorrect version number
- no license info

Solutions:

1. include these docs in extra/gnome-python-extras
2. scrub this package completely, and rename it 'gnome-python-extras-docs'
3. scrub it completely and shift back to AUR

either way, I have included a PKGBUILD which fixes it
   PKGBUILD (0.8 KiB)
This task depends upon

Gaah a further problem, ignore this PKGBUILD

parts of what were once gnome-python-extras are now part of gnome-python, and parts of gnome-python-extras are now in gnome-python-desktop.

This package should be removed and the relevant docs included included in extra/gnome-python-extras
