I have now tried installing python2.5-gnome2-extras on 3 other N8x0's.  In 
every case I get:

Nokia-N800-23-14:/etc/apt# apt-get install python2.5-gnome2-extras
Reading package lists... Done                                        
Building dependency tree                                             
Reading state information... Done                                    
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have    
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable   
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created   
or been moved out of Incoming.                                       

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against         
that package should be filed.                                          
The following information may help to resolve the situation:           

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  python2.5-gnome2-extras: Depends: python-support (>= 0.3.4) but it is not 
installable                                                                         
E: Broken packages

and

Nokia-N800-23-14:/etc/apt# apt-get install python-support
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package python-support is not available, but is referred to by another 
package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package python-support has no installation candidate

Although the installation worked for Kamen in scratchbox, it still appears 
that the package is broken.  I would report a bug except for two things:
1. There does not seem to be a category for reporting bugs of this nature.
2. Nokia plans no further releases for diablo, so I presume that the bug 
will never be fixed.

I also tried Mer.  Under Mer it is possible to install the package and it is 
then possible to import gtkmozembed.  However, when I run my program, I get 
the message

SystemError: dynamic module not initialized properly

Anyone know how to fix this problem?
