When trying to add the applet, I get
Failed to resolve, or extend '!prefs_key=/apps/panel/profiles/default/applets/applet_3/prefs;background=none:;orient=down;size=xx-small;locked_down=false

I suspected GCONF issues, but I recursevly unset the clock dir, and
nothing, so I executed the applet by itself (evil), and got

/usr/lib/gnome-panel/clock-applet: error while loading shared libraries:
libecal.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Traced libecal.so.4 down to evolution-data-server, 0.0.93-1 0.

the email address, so contact me at m4rccd@yahoo.com [Or maybe it got
changed by default on the first time I set it])
