I have the xfce4-session reinstalled (command sudo eopkg it --reinstall xfce4-session) and the option to log in to Wayland is gone now, which is fine if it's not ready yet. But thought, the main focus of this release is about Wayland support, isn't it? If not the Wayland support, what are the changes from user's perspective? I find no issue for the moment after upgraded to 4.20, but also seeing no changes 🙂. Please correct me if I missed some details in their announcement.

And thank you for maintaining this. I find XFCE is very stable at the moment except a few time freezes with no reason, but it's acceptable.

    It's more about preparation for Wayland support. The XFCE developers have been very adamant that Wayland on XFCE is still very experimental for 4.20.

    etokarew That would be firewalld. The applet is a separate package; I forget the name. Searching for firewalld should show it.

    This question is a little frivolous, but, how did you put the Solus logo in About Xfce? It looks beautiful.

      joluveba we don't do anything special. It probably gets it from /etc/os-release or something.

        Just pushed a change to xfce4-panel to enable gtk-layer-shell support on Wayland. Hopefully that solves the issue of the panel floating in the middle of the screen with window decorations... xD

        a month later

        XFCE 4.20 has been released and is now in the Unstable repository! If you added the testing repository, remember to remove it with:

        sudo eopkg rr "XFCE 4.20"

        Whether you tested the pre-release or not, you will get the 4.20 update as normal.
