Bug#388796: kicker-applets: Several applets malfunction in a narrow vertical bar

[John Goerzen <jgoerzen@complete.org>]

Package: kicker-applets
Version: 4:3.5.4-1
Severity: normal

I want to have my kicker be a narrow vertical bar.  But I've got several 
problems:

1) The clock is simply truncated, instead of rotating automatically to 
display vertically like Gnome's does.  (There is not even any option to 
do this manually)

2) The system tray insists on growing to the right, instead of 
vertically, so quite a few system icons are completely unreachable.
