Hi all
As a new release of my favorite DE is out and it's christmas, I thought I
give it a go.
In short: An upgrade from 4.14 as in blfs svn works seamlessly, in the exact
order as already in the book.
Apart from many bug-fixes and enhancements. there are just minor changes to
the build:
- gtk+-2 is dropped completely. That should not bother anybody, I guess.
That is the thing that worries me - on my laptop I use xfce for a
pseudo-minimalist DE (because nm-application needs something more
than icewm) and old plugins (battery, cpugraph, netload). Those
plugins all seem to be on the fringes of xfce and not updated in a
long time. Anyone know if they still build with 4.16 ?
I just tried cpugraph from
https://archive.xfce.org/src/panel-plugins/xfce4-cpugraph-plugin/1.1/xfce4-cpugraph-plugin-1.1.0.tar.bz2
It does not build:
cpu.c:154:10: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a
cast [-Wint-conversion]
icon = xfce_panel_pixbuf_from_source ("xfce4-cpugraph-plugin",
NULL, 32);
