Quick directions on doing this...

Go here.
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/fbpanel
Download the 3 files of the package into a common directory; 
fbpanel_4.12-1.dsc
fbpanel_4.12.orig.tar.gz
fbpanel_4.12-1.diff.gz

Run this command in that directory.
dpkg-source -x fbpanel_4.12-1.dsc

This unpacks the tar.gz and applies the patches.

cd into the directory and issue this command.

fakeroot ./debian/rules binary

This should produce the .deb package.

Then 'dpkg -i [package name].deb' to install.

You'll need the various dev packages and fakeroot of course.
