Trying to install xfwm4

elfprince

Ran into problems by not being able to find libxfce4ui-2. Anyone knows how to find this in Solus land?

brent

we have the library addition to this in repo but not this and I can't see where libxfce4ui-2 exists in anything but a deb package. I wonder if you could crack one open? See rpms too. No source code. Gotta be out there at github if I had to guess. maybe

elfprince

brent Can't seem to find the source file still, without the .deb

looks like targz source code is here to download

brent

libxfce4ui-2 no hits at gitlab
libxfce4uihas a lot
wonder what the difference is?

check out the last Strobl response at the end of this Task re:libxfce4ui Info is 2 years old but may explain.
Whether something compatible exists I don't know.
edit/format

edit again Axios that for scratch package could work I think

Axios Thanks but not the right package.

elfprince

brent Thanks and no luck still. Perhaps this effort is a lost cause. Too much 'needle in hay stag' story.
Was just curious how xfwm4 compares with jwm. No problems, moving on.
