I think this is just because gnome-core and gnome-applets haven't been built and
uploaded for PPC in a *very* long time.  Building those two packages (and their
Build-Depends before them) should fix this.  If this user has the guts to use
unstable, he/she should be able to recognize such a missing dependency for what it
is. :-)

If I get some time this weekend I'll bulid the latest everything (through nautilus
and gnumeric) and upload myself.

Zeen,
