+Google Gadgets for Linux provides a platform for running desktop gadgets under
+Linux, catering to the unique needs of Linux users. It's compatible with the
+gadgets written for Google Desktop for Windows as well as the Universal
+Gadgets on iGoogle. Following Linux norms, this project is open-sourced under
+the Apache License.
+
+By default Google Gadgets will build a GTK+ interface. If you also want a GUI
+based on the QT library, you will need to have QT4 installed at compile time.
+A SlackBuild for QT4 is available at SlackBuilds.org.
+
+Note: this will not build if webkit is installed.
