Bug#289779: gdesklets: Maybe the bugfix is breaking displays

Package: gdesklets
Version: 0.32-1
Followup-For: Bug #289779

I may have been confused by the two announcements in the gdesklets news
page. One announced 0.33 on 1 Jan., and the bugfix was announced
yesterday the 9th.

If the bugfix release is the one I have, then that's the one that broke
displays.

Where the announce for 0.33 says'Please don't complain about some very
old desklets not working anymore, which used API which had been marked
as deprecated for half a year,' I'm wondering if most of the psi and LT
displays fit that category. Nearly all their CPU, memory, disk usage,
and network info displays are now broken.

Downgrading to 0.32 gives me those displays back.
