I had never used/run/heard of fbpanel before this release.  I was
seeing the same blank bar and had to do as you suggested:

cp -f /usr/share/fbpanel/multiwindow ~/.config/fbpanel/

To get anything useful.  Might want to add this command as part of the
installation process (with a simple file check to make sure
~/.config/fbpanel/multiwndow doesn't exist before copying, of course).

I was about to say that fbpanel handles this itself (see /usr/libexec/fbpanel/make_profile). But looking at the code, I think I see what may be happening. If you have *none* of the following in your PATH:

firefox
gnome-terminal
opera
pcmanfm
rox (rox-filer)
urxvt (rxvt-unicode)
thunar

then by mistake it results in a syntax error with sed, which ends up making an empty profile.

I just uploaded fbpanel-6.1-5 to sourceware; once it hits the mirrors and you install it, please remove your empty ~/.config/fbpanel/multiwindow and it should work as designed.
