I'm seeing this behaviour on a system I upgraded from F8 to F9 using the Unity respin 20081004 DVD. Moving all the gnome directories out of my home directory, logging out, and logging in again made this error go away. This was on a laptop that had the F8 battery charge monitor in the panel, and it looks like that is not in the list of applets in F9 (although one shows up in the panel when I log on). I'm guessing that the old F8 battery charge applet may be causing the problem, at least for me. How can I remove the old battery indicator applet by hand? Where does gnome panel store the list of applets? you can do it by starting up gconf-editor and navigating to /apps/panel/general and editing the applet_id_list key to not have that applet. or you can do gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel to reset your panel configuration to the default. This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Still present on F11 after an upgrade from F10. I think this needs triaging with bug #452913 and bug #479495. There's clearly still a problem with applets that are deprecated - this dialog shouldn't keep appearing. Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
