OK, I feel silly.
I forgot that I had actually compiled gDesklets myself due to the Debian
version being out of date. Oddly enough, it will compile just fine, but
when I un-installed, and got the apt version, two new dependencies (I
think python-xml was one) were installed. So, now gDesklets runs just
fine. I wonder if the source-code version is missing dependencies.

current :)
Thank you,
