16 gnome-panel 1.4 and 2.x are mutually nonintrusive (this -r2 is a fix for
17 1.4 so it won't overwrite 2.x's screenshooter util) and they will both
18 stay happily in your system
19
20 the reason you might have gnome-panel 1.4 installed might be that you
21 have some gnome program that wants to install a panel applet, but is
22 still at the gtk-1.2 era (gnome 1.4 ). This makes the panel applet
23 incompatible with the new gnome-panel, so it pulls in the old gtk 1.2
24 panel, and builds nicely against it. (in fact you can actually run the
25 gnome 1.4 panel on a gnome2 desktop : "panel &" ;)
