Description of problem: After installing gnome-blog on FC5 and logging out and back into GNOME I still cannot add the gnome-blog applet to my panel. It is simply not listed in the choices. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-blog-0.8-12.fc5
I think this is due to this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=182575 Hopefully, I'll have a little free time to look into this closer tomorrow.
Yes, that is the problem. Manually copying /usr/lib64/bonobo/servers/GNOME_BlogApplet.server over to /usr/lib/bonobo/servers/ made the applet appear.
Fixed in gnome-blog-0.8-13
