Florian,

I think you're right but I'm going to consolidate them here as this one
already has more attention (ie was confirmed) and has been forwarded
upstream. Traceback from Bug #222846 and work around from Bug #205507
have been add to this bug's description.

** Description changed:

  I use glipper all the time and I find it to be the clipboard application
  that has been missing from Linux desktops for the longest time. In the
  recent Hardy development I find that glipper dies when the desktop
  starts. I receive the following message in an error dialog window:
  
  The panel encountered a problem while loading OAFIID:Glipper....
  
  The  is asks if I want to remove glipper  from the panel. I find this
  very frustrating. What is more frustrating is that once the desktop is
  up and running I can then install the glipper applet back on the panel
  and it works properly. I have only installed this as an applet and I
  have never tried setting up a custom launcher.
  
- When the program dies there is no crash report because I don't believe
- we are firing up glipper at that time. Please help... Thanks
