Xfce4 SVN

lunke · 2005-06-28 18:06:19

Yes I know there's a Xfce4 CVS PKGBUILD but since it's so outdated I desided to update it so it's again usable. I'm not entirely sure about the deps so if you find any missing ones please post it here.

Please note that this package is not designed to be installed with other versions of Xfce. It may work and may not, most likely it won't so please remove any previous installations of Xfce.

CyberTron · 2005-06-28 18:28:41

what are the advantages to use xfce4-cvs over ordinary xfce4?

is this the next xfce4 that might gonna support icons on the desktop and some other nice news?

lunke · 2005-06-28 18:37:26

Acctually there isn't much difference, yet. Some nice inprovments on the panel though. So it's still Xfce4.2 only slightly better

CyberTron · 2005-06-28 18:56:03

ok

xerxes2 · 2005-06-28 19:46:01

look, one more swede!!!!

hmm, this could be the well known lunke from swec, in either case you must have sweden listed in your profile,

droog · 2005-06-28 21:28:01

I think they are basing the icons on the desktop for xfce on the new thunar file manager they will have in the next release. They have some mock ups here http://thunar.xfce.org/wiki/ and the developers blog has more info here http://xfce-diary.blogspot.com/ I've been keeping my eye on it the last couple weeks and it looks pretty cool so far.

lunke · 2005-06-29 03:04:16

xerxes2: Yep det är Lunke från swec

droog: Thunar looks awsome. I love it, except the name. It sucks.
However, there SVN snapshots here http://thunar.xfce.org/download/snapshots/devel/ which might be interesting.

ya ive been downloading those, and the 3 view one and different toolbars and crap for it. but havent been able to test anything. im temporarily stuck on a windows laptop..

TomE · 2005-09-08 12:42:58

lunke you shoude change svn update http://svn.foo-projects.org/svn/xfce/modules/trunk to svn up $startdir/src/trunk

hers a PKGBULID for thunar

pkgname=thunar
pkgver=0.0.2.r17470
pkgdesc="Thunar is a file manager designed for Xfce. It is currently under development."
url="http://thunar.xfce.org/wiki/"
depends=('exo-svn')
makedepends=('subversion')
source=()
md5sums=()

build() {
  if [ ! -d $startdir/src/thunar ]; then
    echo "Fetching sources..."
    svn checkout http://svn.foo-projects.org/svn/xfce/thunar/trunk/ /thunar
  else
    echo "Updating sources..."
    svn up $startdir/src/thunar/
  fi

  cd $startdir/src/thunar
  ./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/xfce4-svn
  make || return 1
  make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
  find $startdir/pkg -name '*.la' -exec rm {} ;
}

you will need exo from svn as well

pkgname=exo-svn
pkgver=r17470
pkgdesc="Extensions to Xfce by os-cillation"
url="http://libexo.os-cillation.com/"
conflicts=(exo)
provides=(exo)
depends=('xfce4-svn')
makedepends=('subversion')
source=()
md5sums=()

build() {
  if [ ! -d $startdir/src/trunk ]; then
    echo "Fetching sources..."
    svn checkout http://svn.foo-projects.org/svn/xfce/libexo/trunk/
  else
    echo "Updating sources..."
    svn up $startdir/src/trunk
  fi

  cd $startdir/src/trunk
  ./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/xfce4-svn
  make || return 1
  make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
  find $startdir/pkg -name '*.la' -exec rm {} ;
}

phrakture · 2005-09-08 15:29:14

you should probably add this to the AUR - it's much easier for users to search for packages there....

andrewski · 2005-09-12 03:04:33

I'm getting an error when it starts to build:

Running /var/abs/local/xfce4/src/trunk/libxfce4util/configure --enable-maintainer-mode --prefix=/opt/xfce4-svn...

Searching on Google turns up some general errors, but I'm not getting this error from any other compiles, so it seems to be specific to this PKGBUILD.

CyberTron · 2005-09-18 17:27:15

that means that your c compiler cannot build binary files, probably related to gcc4 (perhaps?) or am I totally wrong here?

CyberTron · 2005-09-18 18:36:59

Lunke: It seems that one of the programs/modules need a2ps

you need to add it to depends

CyberTron · 2005-09-18 20:30:37

Just wanted to tell everyone that Xfce4.3 (soon 4.4) rocks !!

It is almost perfect (now when it handles icons on the desktop..)

I will now try using those icons in e17 and see how that goes

LudoTheGreat · 2005-10-09 01:51:52

Hey guys,

Been trying to build xfc4-svn for a while now with the pkgbuilds from this post. I keep running into this error no matter what i try.

xfce-mixer-prefbox.h:61: error: syntax error before 'CommandOptions'

Any ideas?

CyberTron · 2005-10-09 04:17:21

have the same problem asthe one above

I think that cvs is broken, or xfce4 doesn't like gcc4 ?!

LudoTheGreat · 2005-10-09 04:24:41

Thouse where my guesses too. Iv been trying for a couple weeks now with no luck. Anyone know of a work around?

TomE · 2005-10-09 23:17:33

there's a new panel framework and the plugin for the mixer is not ported to it yet. this goes for the xfce4-trigger-launcher and (i think) xfcalendar but some work may hve been done with that.

you can wait for the plugin to be ported or (like me) remove it from the PKGBULID.

LudoTheGreat · 2005-10-10 01:15:13

sweet thanks TomE that was the answer i was looking for. I can't wait so Im going to try and build it without them for now.

Thanks, fixed. Sorry for the late reply.
Anyho, has anyone been able to build the latest version of xffm? I can't seem to find a working release of libxffm =/

As for everyone else who's haveing problems building a certain module, try removing it from the PKGBUILD and build the package without it. (unless it's a needed module, i.e libxfce4util etc.)

CyberTron · 2005-10-21 19:18:18

i have recently spoken to TomE, and he sent me a pkgbuild that is working (no xffm yet though, there is, apperently, a makefile.a missiing or something like that...)

so expect a new pkgbuild here soon , although, the new xfce takes forever to start...

stavrosg · 2005-10-22 06:27:24

xffm is in the proccess of being modularized, so /xffm/trunk will not build. I've made seperate packages (though I would not dare to share my pkgbuilds as they are now):

$ pacman -Qg xfce4-xffm
xfce4-xffm fgr-svn
xfce4-xffm libtubo-svn
xfce4-xffm libxffm-svn
xfce4-xffm scramble-svn
xfce4-xffm xfdiff-svn
xfce4-xffm xffm-gui-svn

CyberTron · 2005-10-22 06:37:56

Ah, thanks for the update and such, ok, so it is being modularized, that is good to know

shadowhand · 2005-10-22 10:39:24

Btw, I have Xfce-svn binaries available in my repo: http://archpkg.wgilk.com

I used your pkgbuild as a basis for it stavrosg.

Oooh thanks for the info about xffm, I was wondering why it didn't work...

You rule shadowhand! Thanks for the pkgs. Xfce-svn installed and runs awsome. Thanks again.
