Doesn't seem so. I know that bug and I have used a workaround mentioned
in the comments (I have menu-xdg installed).
When I strace -p the gnome-panel and switch workspaces I see lots of
open("/usr/lib/X11/locale/common/xlcUTF-8.so.2", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
open("/usr/share/X11/locale/common/xlcUTF-8.so.2", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
(I have attached the strace) - but that's not related on the presence of the
applet.
Another interesting symptom is that the applet slows down the panel
gradually - but just removing the applet and adding it again doesn't
help the issue (just removing does. Freshly started panel with the
applet works ok, but slows down after some - not very long - time).
I am going to try some other debugging techniques mentioned in bug 52405
, but I'm inexperienced in debugging complex software and can take some
time.
