When will this show up in either update manager or Synaptic?

We've got xfce4-4.10 packaged and in the testing repository of Vectorlinux. For us at Vectorlinux our Xfce version has always been our most loved and popular version of the OS. Looks great, and awesome job guys.

FWIW, you can have a look at a video of our own testing of the xfce4-4.10 in this video link below. Xfce4-4.10 itself so far is solid, you will see in the video the kinks we are ironing out have to do with our own packaging.

@devs

ditto prairie_dad. I'm converting all machines to this now. 4.10 now 'looks' like a very polished product and seems to be meta stable. On old P4s the interface positively flies and makes these cheap old boxes very useable.

Serious thanks and congrats to all those involved.

Well done! I'm somewhere in my fourth or fifth year with Xfce, and so glad. Running on Arch now, mostly, but also some on Fedora, Salix (though not 4.10) and there've been others in the past. For my money, the best DE out there...and I've tried 'em all...Gnomes, KDEs, LXDE, MATE, Cinnamon, fluxbox, openbox...Xfce retains the best balance between features on the one hand and modest memory consumption on the other. Bravo and thanks,

dave

Well done, all of you guys!

How about polishing some of the apps and plugins before going into Gtk3 to make Xfce a more powerful and more complete desktop?

Gnome is neither very stable nor appreciated somehow after the big change, will Xfce not follow Gnome's old road to ruin?

I'll pick up terminal again, but was a bit busy with the 4.10 core.

bigger part of „xfce-goodies“ projects are obsolete(i'm translator, so viewing from translation point of view).

Congrats! The window tiling on edges is a great feature I missed very much in previous releases. The wallpaper stepping is nice, too. Hope it will arrive soon to Fedora.

But my xfce4-settings-manager come without icons and menu items. Here is screenshot: http://storage2.static.itmages.ru/i/12/0429/s_1335723262_9622203_263493224a.png
my system is xubuntu 11.10.

I had the same problem with xubuntu 12.04. The solution is to build exo with a different prefix (I choose /usr/local), "editing /etc/ld.so.conf.d/i686-linux-gnu.conf" (for 32 bit system) and pre-pending "/usr/local/lib" at the top of the list. This will ensure that those libraries are used first and not the default ones installed with xubuntu. Then run:

sudo ldconfig

...and it should work.
