Harry (harry33) wrote : [Natty] New GTK+2.0 breaks certain gnome-panels applets

After todays upgrade of GTK+2.0_2.23.3-1ubuntu2 certain applets are broken, at least they are invisible in the panel.
These applets are certainly affected:
- Clock (including Weather and Calendar functions)
- Wastebasket (Trash)
- Notification Area (including Network-Manager-Applet)

As a workaround, applets do reappear, when I downgrade to the previous version of GTK (2.23.2-0ubuntu4).
Installing the version 2.23.3-1ubuntu2 I get the following error message:
