better way to make contacts.

I run Ubuntu Linux 5.04

I have installed packages=20

python2.4 (as well as python)=20
python2.4-Gtk2 (as well as python-gtk2)=20

I'm running Gnome so I'm sure I have gtk+ too, though I can find no package=
s=20
in my package list actually called that.=20

INSTALL_ME and PyInstallshield both produce:=20
