Smile gDesklets gnome.ui error


Hello everyone!

I'm trying to install gDesklets on my Slackware 10 distro.

I'm running enlightenment-0.16.7.2 (got it from the linuxpackages.net site) and I wanted to put those nice displays working.

Basically my problem occurs when I try to start the gdesklets daemon:

# gdesklets start
connecting to daemon [### ]Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/gdesklets/gdesklets-daemon", line 13, in ?
import gnome.ui
ImportError: No module named gnome.ui
Cannot establish connection to daemon : timeout


I went to get the necessary packages to run gDesklets from linuxpackages.net and installed them in the following order:

pygtk-2.4.1
pyorbit-2.0.1
gnome-python-2.6.2
swig-1.3.21
gDesklets-0.30


After a google search on the topic I also installed required gnome packages:

libgnome-2.6.1.1
libgtop-2.6.0
libbonobo-2.6.2
libbonoboui-2.6.1
orbit2-2.10.2
gconf-2.6.2
gnome-vfs-2.6.1.1
librsvg-2.6.5
libgnomeui-2.6.1.1


and also: (extra-gnome)

python-2.3.4
libxml2-2.6.9


I've also tried to install from source but I get stuck with pyorbit compilation.

I've read some related posts on the matter but none seemed to help me.

Can someone give me a hint to solve these problem? Is there some basic step that I'm missing? Thanks!

I installed all the gnome packages from CD 2 and still the error persists when I run in gnome.

All the "google" solutions I found for the error message didn't seem to help me.

At the moment I really don't know what else to do. Any help/tips would be great!

Thanks!
