Panel applets are not supported in Gnome Shell. The fallback mode does rely
on the older gnome-panel code, which does still have libpanel-appplet (it has
a new ABI in F-15, hence the broken deps). Maintainers can either rebuild
against/port to the libpanel-applet-4 ABI if they really want to, knowing that
this would only be available in the fallback mode.
