Description of problem:
The Minicmd plugin does not show up in the list of plugins for Xfce4-panel.
When starting the panel, it gives an error like:

xfce4-panel-WARNING **: Failed to create plugin "minicmd"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xfce4-minicmd-plugin-0.4.0-8mdv2009.1
xfce4-panel-4.5.92-3mdv2009.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install xfce4-panel and xfce4-minicmd-plugin
2. Run xfce4-panel
3. Add a new item for the panel, and check for minicommand (it's not there)

Proposed fix:
Adding this line to the desktop file of the plugin resolves the problem:
X-XFCE-Exec=/usr/lib64/xfce4/panel-plugins/libminicmd.so

An update:

The plugin does show upin the list, but it doesn't get added when selected.
It seems the verve plugin is an updated version of the minicmd, so I switched to that instead.

Well, I think this bug can be closed... the plugin is not to be found anywhere anymore.
