Another workaround is to bug the author hard as we can. I already asked 
him about change bin to Makefile in the email around two to three weeks 
ago and he hasn't change anything. He said that he's working on 
improvement and turned out that he just does is replace shell script to 
python script for do the extract... It needs to be more than just me to 
bug him.

Oh btw: I am going to add the BUILD_DEPENDS of gdesklets in applet port 
too.

Cheers,
Mezz
