Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Hardy beta, amd 64
gnome-panel 1:2.22.0-0ubuntu2

With the new international clock applet when I click on any of the locations, and then close the applet, the panels disappear for a few seconds, then reappear, but without the nm-applet.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1.) Click on the clock in the panel to open the applet.
2.) If locations are not shown, click on 'Locations' to show them.
3.) Click on any of the locations (on the clock, city name, time or weather icon).
4.) Click on the clock in the panel to close the applet.

Now the panels disappear, and after a few seconds they reappear, however, nm-applet will be missing from the panel. Enabling or disabling Compiz does not change this behaviour.

I will do it at latest in the weekend.
With todays update now Apport also creates a bug report, it is now bug #207954. It is a duplicate of this bug, but did not find another way to send in the info from Apport. I also looked into ~/.xsession-errors, and it has a few lines from gnome-panel, which I copy here:
