Description of problem: gnome-applets crash sometimes in startup. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-panel-2.32.0.2-2.fc14.x86_64 gnome-applets-2.32.0-2.fc14.x86_64 dbus-1.4.0-1.fc14.x86_64 How reproducible: sometimes. Japanese desktop and log on immediately after log out is more frequent. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log on to the GNOME desktop. Actual results: Various kinds of applets are not loaded. The messages in the dialogues are "The panel encountered a problem while loading ~" and "Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?". Expected results: Applets are loaded correctly. Additional info: These messages are retrieved by the follwing command. (I translated these message because they are written in Japanese.) % startx 2> error.log ** (gnome-panel:12890): WARNING **: Failed to load applet WnckletFactory::WindowListApplet: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface 'org.gnome.panel.applet.AppletFactory' on object at path /org/gnome/panel/applet/WnckletFactory ** (gnome-panel:12890): WARNING **: Failed to load applet WnckletFactory::WorkspaceSwitcherApplet: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface 'org.gnome.panel.applet.AppletFactory' on object at path /org/gnome/panel/applet/WnckletFactory
This bug appeared on my system, too. It's very annoying. Sometimes gnome-panel will load ok, then it won't load the applets while using "pkill gnome-panel" to reload it. Strange is that I can still manually add the crashed applets to panel. ~/.xsession-errors is the same as Takayuki's one: ** (gnome-panel:12625): WARNING **: Failed to load applet NotificationAreaAppletFactory::NotificationArea: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface `org.gnome.panel.applet.AppletFactory' on object at path /org/gnome/panel/applet/NotificationAreaAppletFactory etc. depends on crashed applet. I have no idea how to fix this bug or what to do with that :-(

This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached 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, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. 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
