Xfce is a free software desktop environment for Unix and + Unix-like platforms, such as &os;. It aims to be fast and + lightweight, while still being visually appealing and easy to + use. The &os; Xfce Team has kept most of Xfce ports up-to-date, + while fixed many issues along the way in this quarter.

+ +

Currently, the following components with the following versions + are available:

+ +

Applications:

Orage (4.10.0)
Midori (0.5.6)
xfce4-terminal (0.6.3)
xfce4-parole (0.5.3, 0.5.4)

Panel plugins:

xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin (1.2.0, 1.2.1, 1.2.2, 1.3.0)
xfce4-mailwatch-plugin (1.2.0)
xfce4-wmdock-plugin (0.6.0)

+ +

We helped Midori's upstream to switch from Waf (Python script) + to CMake. Xfce now also supports Gtk2, Gtk3, and the new + WebKitGtk API, available from the 2.x branch, not present in our + ports tree at the moment, though. Most of the ports now use + stage directories, only some plugins left to convert.

+ +

We also removed obsolete ports:

+ +

x11-themes/lila-xfwm4 (Xfwm4 theme)
multimedia/xfce4-media (multimedia player)
net-im/xfce4-messenger-plugin

+ +

Besides, we followed the development of the Xfce core + components and Parole closely. See the links for documentation + on how to upgrade those libraries.

+ + + + Fix Midori's build on DragonFly, through DPorts. + + Fix build of the Granite framework (it is an extension to + Gtk and Midori uses it) on &os; 10 and head. + Those are mostly LLVM failures. + + Add support for Berkeley DB 5 and higher to Orage. + +
