Several widgets (or plasmoids, the terminology seems to vary) won't open because something called "ggl" is missing, e.g. The Online Dictionary widgoid says "Could not open the ggl_4 package required for the Online Dictionary widget". This is on KDE 4.2.3-1.fc11.x86_64.
I can't find anything about "ggl" in the repos. Anyone know what's going on?

yum install kdebase-workspace-google-gadgets
or something that actually works, like: yum install kdebase-workspace-googlegadgets

Thanks, that did it.
However I have to wonder why I could see widgets listed that wouldn't work without this package,
but the package isn't installed as a dependancy,
and the error message gives no clue as to what is needed.
In fact I see other widgets (e.g. Blue Marble) that seem to need OpenGL, but again no indication of what to do.

I keep forgetting to ask this: How do I make the google's photo widget work with URL's? By default, it is set to display images from a google search result but it doesn't really show any pictures. The only thing that works is if I set it to display local images.

Sounds like a bug in google-gadgets.
