Thanks for the responses. I did try apt-get install -reinstall gnome-panel-data followed by apt-get remove gnome-panel-data
This almost worked except that I'm getting seg faults with scrollkeeper. I tried removing and reinstalling scrollkeeper but the seg faults persist. I'm at a bit of a dead end. I'm really tempted to reinstall sarge. Any suggestions?
