Thats all I needed to read, you are using a Deb based system, and attempting to compile a package.

What you can do is:

Code:
apt-get install gdesklets

That should install the package.

If you do want to compile from source you will need to install all the development related packages, in this case GCC to start with (but doubtless there is more).
