[Bug 1304143] Re: ImportError: cannot import name 'ki18n' when launching gdebi-kde

[Hugo Piquer]

Problem with python3 internalization.

Patches from Michael Werle to solve the problem here:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=743756

Patches tested, no more error messages and gdebi works.

Patches fix:
For gdebi-kde:
* Fix ki18n import: from kdeui to kdecore
* Replace ugettext with gettext
* Pass bytes rather than strings to ki18n

For GDebi/GDebiKDE.py:
*replace QStringList with list
*replace string operations with str

Thanks to Michael Werle.
