With "-dbus -xfce_plugins_trash" installation of thunar is bearable.

So gvfs is expendable. But dolphin is out of the question. That would
result in 'Total: 78 packages (74 new, 2 in new slots, 2 reinstalls),
Size of downloads: 320,255 kB'. *g*

My thunar is not used by either. That may be because i do not use any
desktop environment. thunar settings fails with

hafi@i5_64 ~ $ thunar-settings
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.xfce.FileManager was not provided by any .service files

Maybe inter alia the revenge for emerging thunar with -dbus. ;)

hafi@i5_64 ~ $ cat ~/.config/xfce4/helpers.rc
TerminalEmulator=Terminal
MailReader=sylpheed-claws
FileManager=custom-FileManager

hafi@i5_64 ~ $ cat ~/.local/share/xfce4/helpers/custom-FileManager.desktop
custom-FileManager.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
NoDisplay=true
Version=1.0

Type=X-XFCE-Helper
X-XFCE-Category=FileManager
X-XFCE-CommandsWithParameter=thunar "%s"

Name=thunar
X-XFCE-Commands=thunar

I do not have sylpheed-claws and TerminalEmulator should probably be
xterm, but thunar-settings points to another problem.

Well so far nobody has complained.

You could suggest what i should do so that about:support works with
thunar. :-D
