Severity: normal

Please remove fbpanel. It FTBFSes with GCC 10, depends on legacy packages (Py2, 
GTK2),
is dead upstream (last commit five years ago) and the last maintainer upload was
in 2017.

Cheers,
        Moritz

I am closing this bug for now since there does not seem any reason left 
for not shipping fbpanel in bullseye.

Feel free to submit RC bugs against fbpanel if any problem(s) appear or 
have not yet been mentioned.
