#1958 F29 Change: Xfce 4.13
Closed 5 years ago Opened 5 years ago by bcotton.

Xfce desktop environment has utilized GTK-2 up until version 4.12.x which is currently available in Fedora. Significant work has been completed to migrate the DE to GTK-3 completely. The obvious benefit to this migration is the use of a modern and actively maintained toolkit.

Xfce 4.13 is a development release leading up to the eventual 4.14 stable release, however 4.13 components have proven to be very stable, provide features users want and the 4.14 release is unscheduled currently. This change proposal is submitted to sync fedora packages with latest upstream releases.


Isn't it too late for F29?

It was submitted before the "Proposal submission deadline (Self Contained Changes) " and @nonamedotc has all the changes lined up in a copr (where it's been tested by a number of people for a while). As soon as this change is approved he can do all the builds.

It has been over a week and has +7 votes, so this is accepted.
