Updates Broke Gnome Clock

I just did a full system update on my Arch workstation and when I rebooted, it gave me the following error when I tried to login:

"The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_ClockApplet".
Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?"

Anyone know what happened or what I can do to fix this?

Re: Updates Broke Gnome Clock

Looks like gnome panel has to be rebuilt.

I just ran the latest updates and my clock or panel is broken. I am not sure what 'fixed' means? I will check the thread above and see if that does anything...

Re: Updates Broke Gnome Clock

I updated my system a hour ago - clock was broken.
Then I updated my stem again and a new gnome-panel release and so one was there...

So now the clock works again - maybe a "pkill gnome-panel" helps after the update.
