That's interesting, haven't thought of that... You just compile with --prefix=/home/<username>/install/xfce-svn ?

Yes, whatever prefix will do. There are build scripts somewhere in upstream xfce svn to do that.

I will probably only run the svn version. Is it possible to boot into it using a special gdm session so that all the svn packages will be used?

I placed a desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions which execs the xfce4-svn-start script instead of /usr/bin/startxfce4.
Jani,

I also placed a new desktop files which runs "startxfce4-svn" which exports a new path variable, with my home/bin directory listed first. It then calls startxfce4 as usual.

Everything seems to work, except for a very, very long load time after logging in (~15 flashing mice;). I still have to sort that out, but I get no errors anywhere...

Cheers!

Jani
