The application I’m planning to install (gnome2-globalmenu-applet) does but most of the other applets depend on libpanel-applet2-0. > I'm not sure providing gnome-panel is sensible given we don't and it > might break other dependencies on gnome-panel. I can understand this, but xfce-xfapplet DOES provide something like gnome-panel after all. I don’t know how perfect the emulation is, but pretty much every applet which works in gnome-panel should also work with xfce-xfapplet. (Yeah, I know you know.) Regards, Mathias -- debian/rules
