I've been building the XFCE 4.8 stack for EPEL 6 and I think I have the core
components done.
The F15 comps mandatory and default components are:
"mandatory">desktop-backgrounds-compat * See below
"mandatory">Thunar * Built
"mandatory">xfce-utils * Built
"mandatory">xfce4-panel * Built
"mandatory">xfce4-session * Built
"mandatory">xfce4-settings * Built
"mandatory">xfconf * Built
"mandatory">xfdesktop * Built
"mandatory">xfwm4 * Built
"conditional" requires="imsettings">imsettings-xfce * See below
"conditional" requires="pinentry">pinentry-gtk * Core
"default">gdm * Core
"default">mousepad * See below
"default">NetworkManager-gnome * Core
"default">openssh-askpass * Core
"default">orage * Built
"default">polkit-gnome * Core
"default">Terminal * Built
"default">thunar-archive-plugin * Built
"default">thunar-volman * Built
"default">tumbler * No branch
"default">xarchiver * Built
"default">xfce4-appfinder * Built
"default">xfce4-icon-theme * See below
"default">xfce4-mixer * Built
"default">xfce4-power-manager * Built
"default">xfce4-session-engines * Built
"default">xfwm4-theme-nodoka * See below
I'm assuming we want basically the same structure for el6. So notes follow:
- EL6 does not appear to have any desktop-backgrounds* packages. What to do?
- EL6 does not appear to have imsettings-xfce. What to do?
- Do we really still want xfce4-icon-theme? It is at version 4.4.3 and
nothing appears to require it. For the el6 packages, I've patched it to use
gnome-icon-theme.
- Not yet branched for el6: mousepad, tumbler, xfwm4-theme-nodoka. I'm going
to put in branch requests.
Once I have mousepad, tumbler, and xfwm4-theme-nodoka built I'm going to put
together an update of the above packages.
I'm going to leave it to others to build the various "optional" xfce-desktop
packages.
