I found that the bonobo configuration files for the applets weren't
being loaded (hence they weren't available in the add-to-panel
dialogue).
I edited bonobo-activation-config.xml to look something like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<oafconfig>
<searchpath>
<item>/usr/lib/bonobo/servers</item>
<item>/usr/local/lib/bonobo/servers</item>
</searchpath>
</oafconfig>
And everything but the clock works again. That's another issue for
another day.
But why is a better question. I have a whole load of config files that
appear to have moved to dbus in brand-new installations. Why didn't my
upgrade port these applets to the new system?
