Description johny why 2018-08-12 08:50:27 CEST
ToZ says this can't work on Mint 19.

[quote]However, if you're running this on Mint 19, it won't work. For some reason, Mint isn't packaging the libxfce4panel-1.0 development/pc files that are required. It's only providing the newer libxfce4panel-2.0 files and the generic slider is still built on the previous (ie. not upgraded to gtk3 yet).[/quote]


Any chance to upgrade the slider so it works on Mint 19?

Here's my compile output, fwiw.

This should be reported to the Mint bug tracker.
Comment 2 ToZ editbugs 2018-08-12 14:25:21 CEST
Bug is invalid. It will build on Mint.
Comment 3 Andre Miranda editbugs 2018-08-14 00:55:45 CEST
Yep, mint packagers need to sort it out or someone needs to port generic-slider to gtk3/libxfce4panel-2.0 (seems easy, I've got no time but I can give guidance).
