I should mention rpmfind.net as well.  If you're not familiar with it, I 
suggest becoming so.  I know it helped me quite a bit back when I was on 
Mandrake, nearing a decade ago now.  They have rpms for all the major rpm-
based distros, for pretty much all packages, for all the major targets 
(certainly x86 and amd64, tho I guess they're generally i686 or whatever, 
and x86_64, in rpm-land).

I just checked and they have pan clear back to 0.9.x, gnome-1-based era, 
and definitely "old-pan" 0.14.x.  With an occasional tweak of deps 
(checking for libwhatever instead of the non-lib-named whatever, or 
similar, then using the nodeps option since you know you have the deps), 
the rpms are often interchangable, so you can try suse, mandriva, red 
hat, fedora, whatever, as long as you get the right arch-target and the 
desired version.

Of course, for all I know that's where you're getting your rpms already, 
but it's worth a mention, just in case.
