Re: uninstall plugin and install plugin instead of it in xfce

The clock plugin is built into xfce4-panel and is not a separate package. The easiest way would be to rename the "libclock.so" file located somewhere in your distro's /usr/lib directory structure and/or replace it with the edited plubin's library file.

A second more complicated, and probably more correct procedure would be to put the library file in a similar location in /usr/local/lib and change your library search path to search this new location first.
