>Description:
The x11/libcapplet has been broken for over a year (will be two in June 2011).
So far, there is no one has any interest to fix or bother us the old GNOME 1
stuff. The GNOME 3 is coming in 2011. Therefore, it's time for us to kill some
of GNOME 1.
>How-To-Repeat:

Here's a patch that need to be tested in the pointyhat-exp.
