That was my thought.
Holding up the update of gnome-applets in testing, we have:
$ grep-excuses gnome-applets
gnome-applets (2.6.2.1-1 to 2.8.1.1-4)
Maintainer: Marc Dequ�nes (Duck)
Too young, only 2 of 10 days old
out of date on s390: gnome-applets, gnome-applets-dev (from 2.6.2.1-1)
Not considered
Depends: gnome-applets gconf2 (not considered)
Depends: gnome-applets libgnome (not considered)
Depends: gnome-applets libgnomeui (not considered)
Depends: gnome-applets gnome-vfs2 (not considered)
Depends: gnome-applets gnome-panel (not considered)
$ grep-excuses gnome-panel
gnome-panel (2.6.2-3 to 2.8.1-2)
Maintainer: Marc Dequ�nes (Duck)
11 days old (needed 10 days)
out of date on s390: gnome-panel, libpanel-applet2-0, libpanel-applet2-dbg,
libpanel-applet2-dev (from 2.6.2-3)
Not considered
Depends: gnome-panel gconf2 (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel gnome-desktop (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel libgnome (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel libgnomeui (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel gnome-vfs2 (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel libwnck (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel gnome-session (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel control-center (not considered)
Depends: gnome-panel evolution-data-server
There are a lot of s390 builds still missing in this chain, so it will be
some time yet before this particular fix finds its way into testing.
