Bug Description

Unless someone bothers to port this to the new gnome-panel, this applet no longer works. The code has been abandoned for the past year and a half since Unity superseded it.

Agreed that upstream is no longer active, it won't work with current versions of gnome-panel, and there are no rdepends. So it should be removed.

But I will note that some people were still using it in netbook-launcher-efl desktops. So they will be sad to see it go, but unless someone does the work to port this to the new panel, it doesn't make sense to still carry it.

I'll remove go-home-applet, the dbus interface is there for a cycle and half already (so it's already broken in natty), if someone want to port it, they'll upload it again
