Hello everybody,
Shortly after Beta 3, we are pleased to announce the first Release Candidate for Xfce 4.6. If no serious bugs are found, this is going to be the state of the final release (plus translation updates). This Release Candidate is the first 4.6 release that comes with graphical installers for the main components and goodies.
The release comes with several fixes for critical bugs and crashes found in Beta 3. Unfortunately, there were a few occasions where we had to break the string-freeze in order to improve error reporting (sorry to the translators).
The goodies installer comes with the following goodies:
- Verve Plugin (0.3.6)
- Disk Performance Plugin (2.2.0)
- Keyboard Layout Switcher (0.5.2)
- Timer Plugin (0.6.1)
- Date and Time Plugin with Calendar (0.6.1)
- Places Plugin (1.1.0)
- Mount devices (0.5.5)
- Mail Watch Plugin (1.1.0)
- Notes Plugin (1.6.3)
- Free Space Checker Plugin (0.4.2)
- MusicPD Client Plugin (0.3.3)
- Wavelan Plugin (0.5.4)
- V4l Radio Plugin (0.3.1)
- Screenshooter (1.5.0)
- Xfburn (0.4.0)
- Taskmanager (0.4.1)
- Dictionary (0.5.2)
- Notification Daemon (0.1.0)
- Ristretto (0.0.21)
You can download the source code of the individual main components, a fat tarball containing all of them and the installers here. A list of changes can be found on this page.
Regards,
The Xfce development team
