Thunar is a modern file manager for the Unix/Linux desktop, aiming to be easy-to-use and fast.
Thunar depends on the following packages:
- perl 5.6 or above
- GTK+ 3.22.0 or above
- GLib 2.42.0 or above
- exo 0.12.0 or above
- intltool 0.30 or above
Thunar can optionally use the following packages:
- D-Bus 0.34 or above (strongly suggested)
- xfce4-panel 4.14.0 or above (for the trash applet)
- xfconf-query
The file INSTALL contains generic installation instructions. For more general information, check the Thunar documentation.
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):
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
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 |
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. |
Thunar supports the following standards/specifications:
- XDG Base Directory Specification
- Shared MIME Database Specification
- X Direct Save (XDS) Protocol for the X Window System
- Icon Theme Specification
- Thumbnail Managing Standard
- File URI Specification
- Desktop Trash Can Specification
Bugs should be reported to Xfce's GitLab. You will need to create an account for yourself.
