Re: XFCE 4.12 on EPEL7
by Steve Dodier-Lazaro 13 Mar '15

Hi Fedora devs, By all means if you think there is a problem in our dependencies for Parole please let us know on the Xfce dev ML. It might be that an older version of Parole can be used for epel7. Also note neither Parole or Pragha are core Xfce packages so even if they're too recent for one of your target systems, you can still ship the rest of Xfce :-) Cheers, On Thu, 5 Mar 2015 02:08 ToddAndMargo <ToddAndMargo(a)zoho.com> wrote: > On 03/04/2015 05:43 PM, ToddAndMargo wrote: > > On 03/04/2015 05:31 PM, Mukundan Ragavan wrote: > >> I will try to complete Xfce 4.10 also ...(try is the important word > >> here :)) > > > > Any change of a port to el6? > > > "chance" not "change" > > -- > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > Computers are like air conditioners. > They malfunction when you open windows > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > _______________________________________________ > xfce mailing list > xfce(a)lists.fedoraproject.org > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce

F22 (With xfce 4.12) Request: Switch to gstramer1.0
by Matias De lellis 08 Mar '15

08 Mar '15

Hi, Sinse Xfce people deprecated the xfce4-mixer, that was the only package of xfce core that depended heavily on gstreamer0.10, and now that Andrzej developed xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin and was packaged on fedora, I think it's time to make the leap to gstreamer1.0. Where?. Parole and Pragha at this time was compiled with gstreamer 0.10. Both, can be compiled with gstreamer 1.0, and the ISO image not contain others packages that depend on gstreamer 0.10 Why?. Beyond the improvements, which are many, gstreamer developers expressly said that would not accept any bug in 0.10. Note: Parole 0.8 compile with 1.0 by default, and pragha 1.2 need compile with 'configure --with-gstreamer=1.0'. Pragha 1.3.* that now recomend also switch to gstramer 1.0 by default. What do you think? Regards, Matias. p.s: xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin 0.2 was released.. Improve a lot. =)

Xfce 4.12 on Rawhide
by Be 01 Mar '15

Will Xfce 4.12 be in updates (stable) for Fedora 21? I have been working on a Fedora Remix with Xfce and am nearly ready to publish it. It would be nice to have Xfce 4.12 in the first release.

Note that testing 4.11.x was fine, but there were still changes between them and 4.12 in some cases I think and of course there's the integration parts, etc

Hi Kevin, Date: Sun, 1 Mar 2015 10:58:41 -0700 From: Kevin Fenzi <kevin(a)scrye.com> … > 1. libxfcegui4 doesn't build against 4.12.

But maybe they could be useful for users still using a modulating demulator? Sorry, just kidding. Let those goodies die in peace. :) The only one I could imagine to be necessary to keep and may have a use case is xfce4-notes-plugin. Maybe we should file any upstream bugs to request a port to libxfce4ui: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11623 Oh well, and the timer plugin. It should be deprecated cause of xfce4-hamster-plugin that has more features. R.

Presentation.

Hi People, My name is Matias De lellis. I am Argentine, 28 years, and I registered here to participate a little in the integration of xfce 4.12 on Fedora. I have a few contributions in this new release, and I'm really excited about this. Before I was in contact with some of you by being the developer Pragha and xfce4-soundmenu-plugin. Some know that Pragha was ported to gtk3. About it, personally sometimes I think that I sold my soul to the devil, but in general was very positive things, like the implementation of plugins, and thanks to it, many interesting things. Of course, as it depends on a version of libxfce4ui that was not stable (Optional but totally recommended) I opposed myself to update Pragha in stable repositories. Although Pragha 1.2 version is still maintained, it is increasingly difficult. and now with the release of Xfce 4.12 we can make the jump. Mmm.. here you can test last version to see all changes: https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/matias/Pragha-updated/ Something similar happened with Parole, which is an official application for Xfce and was a shame. :S So in principle, I would like to participate as a co-maintainer of these packages. Some opposition?. However, I do not know as it is the official procedure for all this. Please guide me in the process. ;) Regards, Matias.
