It turns out the included trayicon files are supposed to be built using
the included Makefile, which the debian package doesn't use.

However, the extension is a simple copy from the python-gnome-extras
distribution, which Debian includes as python-gnome2-extras. Simply
replacing the following import in plugins/trayicon.py:

  from pympd.modules import trayicon

with:

  from egg import trayicon

makes the plugin work for me. Perhaps this should be patched in the
debian package and a recommends on python-gnome2-extras added. Relying
on python-gnome2-extras certainly would beat having to build the
extension yourself...
