gnome-applets-2.28.0-2.1.fc12 with the stickynotes code from gnome-applets-2.26.3-1.fc11
If you erase the contents of a note, then click on delete, it will delete. Another crazy bug.
OK, thanks for that.
The following may well be the crash (and fix):
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594797
The patch has been applied upstream, it's just the stickynotes.ui GtkBuilder input file.
I still haven't found a formal statement of deprecation from the GNOME guys (except the 2005 meeting notes I mentioned before); indeed, quite the opposite: the GNOME git logs show stickynotes being forcibly re-introduced as a build-default in configure.in.
So I'm still not really sure where the Fedora packages get off removing it :-/
