Once again a gnome-dependant port has messed up my Gnome2 configuration (3rd time for me). 
I started to build the diacanvas port and once I noticed it was adding Gnome 1.4 parts I killed the install; unfortunately that wasn't soon enough. Now when I run Gnome I get the Gnome 1.4 panel. I figured simple enough, I removed all the obvious gnome-1.4 ports (including gnomepanel-1.4) then hit the friendly FreeBSD Gnome website and removed all the ports that should be removed for Gnome 1.4.
Even after this I STILL get the gnome-1.4 panel when I run a gnome-session. I even set the FORCE_PKG_REGISTER doohickey in /etc/make.conf and tried to reinstall Gnome2. Dual Xeon 1.8Ghz w/1GB RAM so I don't lose any sleep over rebuilding something.
Next I figure something in the user's ~/whatever config files got changed back to gnome-1.4 bits. I created a brand new user and ran gnome-session as he/she/it - still gives me the Gnome-1.4 panel.
How do I kill this Gnomepanel-1.4 thing once and for all? Now, I remember why I've used Windowmaker for 4 yrs.


Work like you don't need the money
Dance like nobody's watching
Love like you've never been hurt
