That's an old script that uses the *old* libraries (i.e. older than GTK+
2.0 and GNOME 2.0).

Just install the packages:
        python-glade-1.2
        python-gdk-imlib-1.2
        python-gnome-1.2

and hopefully you would be set.

(If you're in the process of learning PyGTK I advice you to learn the
new version instead of the old one.  In other words: GTK+ >=2.0, GNOME
>=2.0, glade >=2.0, as they provide much better options/functionality.
Here's a link¹ that I think it will help you, at least to some degree.)
