Another update...
I redownloaded the screenlets package and looked at their makefile.

install:
        python setup.py install
        cp desktop-menu/screenlets.svg /usr/share/icons
        cp desktop-menu/screenlets-manager.desktop /usr/share/applications
        cp desktop-menu/screenlets-daemon.desktop $(HOME)/.config/autostart

I'm guessing that there should be a / after the autostart. Since I'm new
to Linux I played around and realized that if the directory doesn't
exist, it will copy the file as the name of the directory. If the
directory does exist, it will copy the file into that directory. I tried
running this line again now that autostart exists as a directory and it
worked fine. The screenlets-daemon.desktop file exists in the autostart
directory as needed. I can report this to screenlets.org but it also
looks like a fix should be put in for Ubuntu. It seems like the
directory autostart should be created and left empty. Does this seem
reasonable?
