OK. The parsing errors show up when I install scrollkeeper on any
systems, so I'll quit worrying about that. And I had to re-install
desktop-file-utils as the update-desktop-database image couldn't be
located. I am baffled as to what messed up things so badly.

In any case, gedit is finally up-to-date.

Thanks for all your help, Joe.
