Hello,

Finally I've figured out a workaround, but this is really just a workaround.
1. Delete the following lines from the <!-- List of applets --> section in the 
/usr/share/gconf/defaults/05_panel-default-setup.entries file
<value>
  <string>fast_user_switch</string>
</value>

2. run
update-gconf-defaults

This will regenerate the gconf default file which is used to create the
default desktop.

However the proper solution is much more complex then that. The way it
is right now is actually quite incorrect since the gnome-panel-data
package does not depend on the fast-user-switch-applet and yet it does
in a way because of the content of the default and schema files.

One solution can be to eliminate the fast_user_switch_applet section and values 
from the gnome-panel-data package. More precisely from these files:
/usr/share/gconf/defaults/05_panel-default-setup.entries
/etc/gconf/schemas/panel-default-setup.entries

And add them to the fast_user_switch applet package instead. When that
is installed it would need to add itself to the above mentioned files. I
know it is a hassle and lot of scripting, yet something would need to be
done. I understand that this is not a high priority issue, yet I'd like
to start navigating towards some sort of resolution. I'd really
appreciate if someone could point me to the right direction. What shall
be the next step?

Thanks,
Karoly
