Dear folks,

as Xfce 4.6.1 seems to have a major bug in its window dressing code that can be triggered with moving ia class of GLX windows, i'd like to propose moving to Xfce 4.8. I dont think the changes will be that different since for NetBSD and other BSD the same features won't be available as in 4.6.1 and we got used

to them anyway :-D

What would be needed to update to 4.8? And why is xfce4 not maintained as one

big base package with the extras?

If someone could help me a hand to get it working i'd be most obliged. Maybe

work as a team? Shouldn't be that difficult i guess.

With regards,
Reinoud


Hi Reinoud,

I'd be more than happy to work with you on maintaining Xfce up to date in pkgsrc.


I've started work to update Xfce to 4.8.

I have a set of patches ready for review, I'll send them to you tonight - I don't

have access to my dev machine from $WORK.

So far, I've updated all dependencies for Thunar to their latest versions, as well

as Thunar itself. Still work to do to update xfwm, xfce4-session.... .

Guillaume.
