Python 3 only on the 12.10 desktop CD

Master list of packages to port as a Google doc: http://tinyurl.com/7dsyywo

I have not copied the spreadsheet items to the work items, however feel free to do that and claim it if you start working on one. -barry

Transition tracker based on the master list:
Unknown - means does not depend on python3 for building/running the package
Good - build depends on python3 and binary depends on python3 as well

Status notes:
 * pyppd: https://gitorious.org/vitorbaptista/pyppd/merge_requests/1
 * foomatic-db-compressed-ppds: Just needs a rebuild with updated pyppd

Release Notes:
The Ubuntu desktop has begun migrating from Python 2 to Python 3. Most Python applications included in the desktop and their dependent libraries have been ported to Python 3. In most cases, Python 3 versions of libraries are available alongside their Python 2 counterparts. Ported applications will only run with Python 3. Work will continue in Ubuntu 13.04.
