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 I forgot that I had actually compiled gDesklets myself due to the Debian version being out of date.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. >From now on I stick with the Debian versions (and hopefully they'll stay current :)
