By reading the link, you mentioned enabling the development repository 
in order to pull in cups. With the additional packages needing updated 
in order to meet the dependency demands for cups, some elements for 
gnome-panel might not be present.

It sounds like you have three options, upgrade fully to development, 
download and downgrade the below packages with rpm --oldpackage from 
packages in the FC5 repositories or backup critical data you want to 
save and do a clean install.

As a note, I am running development fully which was FC5 awhile back and 
things are working except for some minor bugs.
