Install GNOME Panel by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=$GNOME_PREFIX --libexecdir=$GNOME_PREFIX/sbin \ --localstatedir=/var/lib --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome --disable-gtk-doc && make && make install |
--libexecdir=$GNOME_PREFIX/sbin: This switch puts libexec files in $GNOME_PREFIX/sbin instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/libexec.
--localstatedir=/var/lib: This switch puts ScrollKeeper files in /var/lib/scrollkeeper instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/var/scrollkeeper.
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome: This switch puts configuration files in /etc/gnome instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/etc.
--disable-gtk-doc: This switch prevents the rebuilding of documentation during the make command.
The GNOME Panel package contains libpanel-applet-2 libraries and applets.
libpanel-applet libraries allow development of small applications which may be embedded in the panel called applets.
Applets included are Workspace Switcher, Window List, Inbox Monitor, Clock and 'Wanda the Fish'.
