hi,

libpanel-applet uses dbus slighly wrong, causing a race condition
between the panel object appearing on the dbus and it providing the
interface expected by the panel. The effect is that random applets fail
to load. I have provided upstream with a patch at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654843#c9
but it seems that they are not the quickest at applying patches against
fallback components, so I’d appreciated if the patch would make it into
the next Debian upload, if it has not been applied until then.

Thanks,
Joachim
