The Xfce team is uploading Xfce 4.16 at the moment. Because not all
components can be uploaded in one go, this may cause some temporary
problems or instability.

I'd advise you to wait some days until all uploads have finished and
then check back if the problem persists and file bugs if needed.

Grüße,
Sven.

The only related? fault I can see with my set up, also Xfce unstable, is
I can't enter the password to unlock it.
I have no problem anywhere else.

Some recent update to unstable seems to have broken Xfce4 for me

2020-12-27 Thread Celejar
Hi,

Some recent update to unstable seems to have broken Xfce4 for me: I
can't suspend the the machine anymore. When I try the keyboard shortcut
I've configured (that has worked for years), I get an error popup
window:

Received error while trying to log out
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs:
Type of message, "(yb)", does not match expected type "(b")

(I've googled this message and found other references to it, but no
clear solution / interpretation:

 )

When I try the little "sleepy moon" icon, I get a different popup window:

Failed to run action "Suspend"
GDBus.Error:org.xfce.SessionManager.Error.Failed: Failed to lock the screen.

Any ideas?
