Status: Python3 only on the ubuntu-desktop images

Before leaving for PyCon and with 15.04 beta2 released, I had a look at removing
Python2 from the desktop images. We are not there yet, but it looks promising
and realistic to achieve for 15.10. Bugs can be seen at

supported upstream, build a python3-zeitgeist package and let zeitgeist depend
on it

oneconf (dependency of software-center)
oneconf-common should use python3 by default
