This is all because the following file:
	/usr/share/python-support/python-gtk2/pygtk.py
which used to belong in the python-gtk2 package, is present on your
system but isn't registered as belonging to any package. 

If you remove it, things should install fine. The question is, how did
it land here? In the previous python-gtk2 version, it was a regular file
and should have been removed upon upgrading. Which means, either you
have done something wrong with your system, or there is a bug in dpkg -
which is, happily, not so frequent.

Cheers,
