KDE WorkSpace-4.10.3 fails with this error:

/usr/src/kde-workspace-4.10.3/plasma/generic/scriptengines/google_gadgets/ggl_package.cpp:244:37: 
error: cannot allocate an object of abstract type 'GadgetBrowserHost'

That would mean that this block of code is wrong:

void GglPackage::createNewWidgetBrowser(QWidget *parent) {
   ASSERT(!host_);
   host_ = new GadgetBrowserHost(this);
   if (!host_ || !host_->gadget_manager_) {
     gadgetBrowserClosed(); // Actually, it's never opened
     return;
   }
   GetGadgetManager()->ShowGadgetBrowserDialog(host_);
}

It won't work since: "GadgetBrowserHost()" is abstract and can not be 
directly allocated.

Does a C++ wiz have a quick fix?  I will have to read the fine manual a 
while to fix it.
