Actually http://bugs.debian.org/366373 has some updates, in particular a patch.
However, applying that patch (installing 14MB of build dependencies) and
reinstalling gives the same error. Or, I think it does, I find it hard to tell
what dpkg-buildpackage is doing when it applies all the patches over the top of
the directory I think I'm meant to edit myself.

In other news, installing network-manager-gnome should give you a nice
notification area way of managing the thing, assuming you're one of the people
(seemingly the vast majority, admittedly) for whom it works.
