I don't know this program...(and i don't wanna install it)
But google has its own manual here:
http://code.google.com/p/google-gadgets-for-linux/wiki/HowToBuild
It seems clear....

sudo ./configure

Unfortunately it's not that simple.
I receive these errors. Everything required appears to be installed although the Fedora curl doesn't have openssl support, is that correct?

configure: WARNING: Library curl or openssl is not available, curl-xml-http-request extension won't be built.

Hi mathan,
This gives the error:

Transaction Check Error:

Also, if using Gnome, QT is not needed right?

.... did I see fc 8?? I thought u using fc9??

got some problem with ur repo? check system->admin->sofware source

Qt provide intrface (and many other thing I not sure of) and is idependent with desktop system... KDE or gnome, u need Qt to run Qt dependent software
