What is it?
===========
Thunar is a modern file manager for the Unix/Linux desktop, aiming to be
easy-to-use and fast.
Required packages
=================
Thunar depends on the following packages:
- perl 5.6 or above
- GTK+ 2.6.0 or above
- libexo 0.3.1.13svn or above
- intltool 0.30 or above
- libpng12 1.2.0 or above
- shared-mime-info 0.15 or above
- desktop-file-utils 0.10 or above
Thunar can optionally use the following packages:
- D-BUS 0.34 or above (strongly suggested)
- HAL 0.5.0 or above (esp. the libhal-storage devel package)
- freetype 2.0 or above (for the font thumbnailer)
- gamin 0.1.0 or above
- gconf 2.4 or above
- libexif 0.6 or above
- libjpeg 6 or above
- libstartup-notification 0.4 or above
- pcre 6.0 or above
- xfce4-panel 4.3.90 or above (for the trash applet)
Installation
============
The file 'INSTALL' contains generic installation instructions. For more
detailed information, visit the Thunar website at http://thunar.xfce.org/.
Debugging Support
=================
Thunar currently supports four different levels of debugging support, which
can be setup using the configure flag `--enable-debug' (check the output of
`configure --help'):
`full' Use this if you want to debug Thunar to locate a bug. The
build will most probably be noticably slower. This is also
recommended for people that want to develop Thunar stuff.
`yes' This is the default for SVN snapshot builds. It adds all
kinds of checks to the code, and is therefore likely to run
slower. Use this if you want to develop for Thunar (e.g.
writing Thunar extensions and such).
`minimum' This is the default for release builds, and presents the
recommended behaviour.
`no' Disables all sanity checks. Don't use this unless you know
exactly what you do.
Standards compliance
====================
Thunar supports the following standards/specifications:
* XDG Base Directory Specification
