Created attachment 2629 compilation error pointing to exo After upgrading exo-master to the latest git (24 Oct), xfdesktop no longer runs. It complains about thunar-vfs (which is also the git version). When recompiling thunar-vfs shows the attached compilation error pointing to exo. Reverting to a previous version of exo, resolves the problem with xfdesktop. P.S.Today I upgraded xfce4-dev-tools, libxfce4util and exo to the latest version, they were the only ones showing new changes.
Jannis, why does thunar-vfs depend on exo-1? I though we were dropping this library or are you going to release it for 4.8 too (not on the schedule page). Will fix this by including the mountpoint code in thunar-vfs.
Release exo-0.5.1 for new dependency on thunar-vfs. Old exo code has been added to thunar-vfs. Jannis, if you want to continue supporting thunar-vfs, you might want to take a look at bug #5825, which has a patch for ExoMountPoint support on Interix.
Yes, I'm planning to do one or two development releases and a last stable release along with Xfce 4.8 so that applications and plugins depending on thunar-vfs will still work. After that there will be no more support for it.
