Description Denis Prost 2011-06-19 11:39:11 CEST
that very useful panel plugin lets XFCE users add any gnome2 applet to their panel. 
Its home page is here : http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/panel-plugins/xfce4-xfapplet-plugin
It would be nice if there were a mageia package for it.
Thanks,

Setting version to cauldron, because package requests will usually be done for cauldron first and then be available in next stable release

Version: 1 => Cauldron

Comment 2 Denis Prost 2013-01-03 15:44:53 CET
I changed the bug report title, since gnome2 has been replaced by Mate which should be available in Mageia 3.
But it's not clear if xfapplet-plugin still works with Mate or not (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1028261).
So maybe this bug should be closed and reopened later if it appears that xfapplet really works with Mate.
Comment 3 Manuel Hiebel 2013-01-03 15:47:34 CET
where have you seen that mate will be available in mga 3 ? (and we have still some gnome2 applet in our repo)
Comment 4 Denis Prost 2013-01-03 15:54:55 CET
I read it here :
https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=3431
but maybe what was said there was just for some Mate packages and not the whole desktop ?

As suggested in comment 2 I'm closing this as WONTFIX for now.
