Under gnome-base/gnome-applets-2.28.0, the Sticky Notes applet that can be added to the Gnome Panel crashes with a "Quit Unexpectedly -- Reload/Don't Reload" error dialog box when creating a new note. This is fixed by the patch given in this git commit: http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gnome-applets/commit/?h=gnome-2-28&id=26488f7c397fd3e41c7c64eaf2b14b577605e97e I took only that patch and used it to make my own ebuild of gnome-applets, which I installed. Now Sticky Notes Works For Me :^) I'll attach my ebuild and the patch I used. HTH. Clemmitt Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge gnome-base/gnome-applets-2.28.0 along with the Gnome desktop environment. 2. Add the Sticky Notes applet to the Gnome panel. 3. Right-click the Sticky Notes icon and select New Note. 4. Applet crashes with "Quit Unexpectedly -- Reload/Don't Reload" error dialog box.
