Both gdm3 (which provides fast-user-switch-applet) and indicator-applet-session ship /usr/lib/bonobo/servers/GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet.server In Ubuntu, they seem to have resolved this by patching GDM to install and use /usr/lib/bonobo/servers/GNOME_FastUserSwitchAppletGdm.server instead. GDM in Ubuntu also doesn't provide fast-user-switch-applet. See: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/410498 This seems a bit unfortunate. I'm not sure why they would apply a patch to GDM which will probably not be accepted upstream when they control the upstream of indicator-applet-session. It seems like they could have better fixed this there. I doubt we can/should take the same approach in Debian. Perhaps we could patch indicator-applet-session use /usr/lib/bonobo/servers/GNOME_FastUserSwitchIndicator.server or something.
