In case it matters: I ran into this problem yesterday on a x86_64 as
well when updating a F8 install+updates to rawhide. Seems F8 shipped and
installed a gnome-applets.i386 -- rawhide these days only contains a
x86_64 package. Thus I removed gnome-applets.i386 and its deps to work
around the problem. I filed it in my internal "multilib sometimes sucks"
category and didn't report it.

Do we care about this kind of problems these days (we afaics didn't in
the past)? Then I'll file a bug next time.
