That's right.  I've seen that error before though, but I write crappy
python also.  Maybe it is missing its beginning:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

or pygtk is not installed.  Or maybe the script is a template and broken
from the fill ins.

My earlier suggestion to poke around with it was not wrong, however.
