xfce 4.16 - 'xfburn' doesn't work

Xfburn does not run on Slackware 15 xfce 4.16 and
Slackware current xfce 4.16.
I used xfburn-0.6.2-x86_64-1gv.txz and self-compiled from source 0.6.2.
However, on xfce 4.12 it works fine.
Relevant dependencies are installed.

There is a mismatch between libraries. Try compiling the git version - it is a little more up-to-date.

Install "git" and make sure you have libisofs installed. Then run the following commands (assuming a 64 bit slackware install):

git clone https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/xfburn.git
cd xfburn
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --enable-gstreamer
make
sudo make install

Compiling from git source was helpful, it's possible to burn a DVD.

So this link takes us to sources that are incompatible with Xfce 4.16

xfburn is in a state of flux right now. It needs a new release to be compliant with changes in libxfce4ui (if you are building from pre-packaged sources). In the meantime, building from git gets around those issues.
