Thanks, I understood you correctly but I thought it worth a try.
Nevertheless, after todays 'dist-upgrade', the Applications -> Preferences panel works !
[... probably a dependency upgrade problem]
Thanks guys,

Oops, sorry if my previous reply wasn't clear. The relevant package is "libmetacity0", not metacity.
Is libmetacity0 installed on your system? Is it listed as 'broken' (non-configured)? What version of the package is installed?
Are the following files present on your system?
$ dpkg -S libmetacity-private
libmetacity0: /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0
libmetacity0: /usr/lib/libmetacity-private.so.0.0.0
You can try configuring or re-installing libmetacity0, or (if those files are present but still not working) try running "ldconfig" as root.
All necessary packages *should* be installed automatically by the dependency system. However, if an error during a "dist-upgrade" went unnoticed, it could prevent some necessary packages from being fully installed or configured.
