The postinst tries to kill bonobo-activation-server, fails because it
isn't running, and because this postinst is of that arse-backward
brain-dead school of thought that uses the "set -e" cop-out error
checking "technique", the installation fails; which also has the effect
that no other gnome related packages can be installed.
Please use a more robust mechanism for checking return codes, if you
need to at all.
Here's a patch:
-set -e
