I don't think that's needed/adequate (replaces usually stands for files/dirs' replacements, and provides could be nice if tumbler and thunar-thumbnailers shared a similar interface, but they don't ; tumbler is dbus-activated and more desktop-agnostic, while thunar-thumbnailers was really tied to thunar). Anyway, thunar recommends tumbler, so it should ensure it will be installed on upgrades, unless the user explicitly disabled "Automatic installation of recommended packages"... but then (s)he knows the consequences. ;-) > On 04/29/2012 08:11 AM, Lionel Le Folgoc wrote: > > Hi, > > > > Thanks for your bug report. > > > > On Sat, Apr 28, 2012 at 05:55:45PM -0400, David Sugar wrote: > >> Package: thunar-thumbnailers > >> Version: 0.4.1-3 > >> Severity: normal > >> > >> Thunar Thumbnailers requires tumbler to actually produce thumbnails in > >> thunar. > >> By > >> itself installing thunar-thumbnailers is presently actually useless without > >> tumbler installed. > >> > > On Xfce 4.8 and later, you need tumbler to produce thumbnails. > > Thunar-thumbnailers was the method for Xfce 4.6, but is deprecated now > > and isn't used anymore. > > > > If you check your package manager, you will see it has already been > > removed from testing/unstable. > > -- Best regards, Lionel _______________________________________________ Pkg-xfce-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-xfce-devel
