Stable releases!

Last week-end, our awesome Nick released new stable versions for almost all Xfce major components: libxfce4util, tumbler, xfce4-appfinder, xfce4-session, xfce4-panel, xfwm4, xfce4-settings, garcon, thunar, xfce4-terminal and tumbler (this is not amnesia, we got two releases in a single day for this component!).

I still need to release libxfce4ui 4.10.1 which would fix some keyboard shortcut issues: numpad shortcuts, shortcuts with Shift, shortcuts with Alt+Print... I need some testers for this stable branch before releasing. So grab the code on git or from this tarball and please confirm if it works fine after restarting your session. Thanks in advance for your help.

The list of changes which can be found in those stable releases in available on the Xfce Announcement mailing list. I wish you all an improved Xfce experience!

Xfce4-notifyd 0.2.4

This quick follow-up release contains a single fix contributed by "Coacher": proper border drawing when compositing is disabled (bug #10021). It also contains a few updated translations: Bulgarian, Chinese (China), Chinese (Taiwan), Flemish and Indonesian.

For the next release, I'm considering implementing (as time allows) notification filtering so that you can turn off notifications from applications which annoy you.

Xfce4-notifyd 0.2.3

I'm glad to announce this new release of xfce4-notifyd which ships mostly bug fixes and code cleanups. Theming has also been improved with additional style properties and drawing fixes. Xfce4-notifyd themes may need to be updated to take advantage of those new style properties and to adapt to the theming changes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks a lot to all the persons who contributed to this release and kept me motivated! This is the result of your work!

Changelog

libnotify is now required as a dependency to build a test suite and to show improved notification previews.

Features

  • Add a category to the settings dialog for Xfce4 Settings Manager.
  • Add widget names to summary ("summary") and body ("body") widgets to allow easier theming. Remove the redundant / buggy summary-bold style property (bug #8431). Themes will have to be updated accordingly.

Bugs fixed

  • Fix notifications not disappearing after clicking an action button.
  • Handle timeout correctly when smaller than fading time (bug #8580).
  • Avoid flickering of the notifications.
  • Accept uri of images in icon_name parameter.
  • Parse body with g_markup_escape_text which allows us to handle span attributes misused by some clients and to parse strings with "unusual" characters such as & (bug #7773, #8187).
  • Respect border-width when drawing the notification (bug #9475).
  • Do not kill notification daemon to apply new theme. Instead, handle style updates of existing notifications.
  • Show a button in the notification preview (bug #9982).
  • Add an icon to the notification preview.

Updated translations

Arabic, Basque, Brazilian, Bulgarian, Castilian, Chinese (China), Chinese (Taiwan), Croatian, Danish, English, Finnish, Flemish, French, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Kazakh, Korean, Lithuanian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Uyghur and Valencian.

Xfdesktop 4.10.2

Xfdesktop 4.10.1 introduced a regression which triggered 100% CPU usage when using a solid color as background. This is fixed with this new release, sorry for the inconvenience.
