You need to do this for the packages- thunar thunar-data libthunarx-2-0
Thank You james0160

that did the trick ....
sorry.. so?
¿?

I did them each individually eg:

echo libthunarx-2-0 | dpkg --set-selections

echo thunar | dpkg --set-selections

echo thunar-data | dpkg --set-selections

thx @james0610

I uninstalled 1.6.2 thunar and it is impossible to install

Hi all,
I experienced the same problem:

I upgraded/dist-upgraded my Crunchbang Waldorf after the official release
thunar1.6 is not anymore in Debian experimental and my thunar has been downgraded to thunar1.2

A workaround is to use the repository of Siduction:

deb http://ftp.spline.de/pub/siduction/xfcenext unstable main

Add the following in /etc/apt/preferences:

Package: thunar libthunarx-2-0 thunar-data
Pin: origin ftp.spline.de
Pin-Priority: 1200

(do not forget to update the Pin-Priority regarding your own /etc/apt/preferences)

Edit 2013-05-27 05:34PM:
There is a better (tidier) way to solve the problem by using Debian unstable:

Package: thunar libthunarx-2-0 thunar-data
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 1200

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 300

Hi guys...Thunar 1.6 is a great great improvement over 1.2...Do you know if Philip plans to update the official Crunchbang package?
It would be very useful and would avoid problems with pinning, for who wants to keep Waldorf as pure stable as possible.

Thanks.

Remove all

from those files. They will break apt, as they will be included in the URL apt tries to connect to. After that, try again.

This is the reason why I hope that Corenominal will take the upgrade to Thunar 1.6 in consideration.

EDIT: You edited your message while I was quoting
Nonetheless, I still consider an "official" thunar 1.6 from the Boss a great advantage.

He means remove the [url ] and [ /url] text (not the text between those tags, just the "[ url]" and "[ /url]") -- so instead of

deb [url]http://packages.crunchbang.org/waldorf[/url] waldorf main

you should have

deb http://packages.crunchbang.org/waldorf waldorf main

and so on...

Is it expected that this will upgrade a whole bunch of libraries, including libc6? I couldn't see the libc6 dependencies but presumably some new library needs a recent version.

CBizgreat! · 2013-07-04 12:19:54

Wasn't going to say anything. Feels like badnetiquette or would it be nixetiquette ? Trying to ween myself off the nix forum addiction I seem to have reemerging.

Though you folks are all suffering from the same thing. Guess could be described as apt pin ignorance. Same thing as that thread. W/o too much explanation pin-priority: 1001 syndrome.

Lower it folks .. even friggin setting it to 1000 would very likely cure what's ailing you(s) People putting packages on hold, jacking up xyz repo's or pinning packages to 5002 ? Ummmm ... don't. Keep the new repos you add pinned low, 100 should be fine and install the stuff you want from whichever repo's with ie: "sudo apt-get install -t unstable thunar"

Crunchbang is obviously meant to be a stable distro and is dang fine, for what it is imo, shrugs. Though can say I've tried to do my good deed for #!'ers and fellow nixers today. Back 2 shutting up ... cya's laterz.

VLL!

Dorkish afterthought: No matter what ... isn't a massive ordeal. Plus one of the many great things about gnu/nix including #!. If ya break it ... you get to keep it plus all the pieces. Though a fresh start is never far away ( aka: reinstall etc.) Alright now shutting up.

Doesn't pcmanfm lack trash-bin functionality? Butterfingers that I am, I sort of need that.

BTW, I'm running into the same issue with "thunar is already the latest version". Working my way through the solutions in this thread but I don't (yet) understand the concept of "pinning" and I'm concerned about setting up something temporary that will cause me problems down the road.

Let me add my vote to include Thunar 1.6 (or some other tabbed, trash-capable FM) in !#... those tabs really are a useful feature, and one of the few things I miss from other distros.

FWIW, the -t flag only puts things at 990. If you pin the #! repo to 990 it will work to install a newer version from another repo.

CBizgreat! · 2013-07-12 23:36:05

Agree ... which is why advised putting #! repos at 990 in that stupe how to. If a default release is set, its given 990 by apt anyway apparently, which in #! get the feeling it is, shrugs.

Anything above 1000 will DOWNGRADE packages ... not a good thing or anything people here are shooting for obviously. Ah ... this is not a problem I have per se, if I want xyz packages from xyz, it wouldn't take much effort to get them. Guess complaining a bit that the default for #! is still pinned @ 1001 ...

To me doesn't gibe or make sense ... Though Corenominal could have many reasons for the decision that I'm not aware of or privy to, shrugs. Yeah would pin #! repo's to 990 and try to be conservative with added repo's pin-priority values and "sudo apt-get -t blahblahblah" stuff desired. Is not my problem .. when want something tend to figure out for myself w/o issues. Went out of way, to try to clarify for others end of the day. Nor is it rocket science either. Not being course ... it's just not ... that's a fact.

Shutting up ... am drunken and quick tempered as a result. Goal was 2 help other nixers with a problem they're clearly struggling with.

hebangs · 2013-08-31 14:51:05

hi, i stumbled across this guide on installing thunar 1.6.2 in debian and m just curious if anyone has tried this and did it work?
thanks.

http://linuxvillage.net/index.php?topic=229.0

I had Thunar version 1.2.3 installed in Wheezy. I looked in the Debian unstable and experimental repos for a newer version. But, there isn't any. Same ol' same ol'. The following is how I upgraded to Thunar version 1.6.2.
(1) Get the Siduction keyring for package verification. Do these steps as user root. If you use sudo, act accordingly.
Code: [Sélectionner]
wget http://packages.siduction.org/base/pool … 29_all.deb
Code: [Sélectionner]
dpkg -i siduction-archive-keyring_2013.03.29_all.deb

Code: [Sélectionner]
rm siduction-archive-keyring_2013.03.29_all.deb

Removing the keyring package is optional. I left it in root's home directory.
(2) Create a text file named siduction_XFCE4_next.list. The name can be of your own choosing, but it must contain the suffix of .list. Note that this source list is only a subset of Siduction's full repository. That is what you want, unless you want to change your Wheezy/testing installation to Siduction (based on Debian unstable). The contents of the file are listed below.
Code: [Sélectionner]
# siduction
# XFCE4.10 xfcenext (amd64 / i386 )
deb http://packages.siduction.org/xfcenext unstable main
# deb-src http://packages.siduction.org/xfcenext unstable main

(3) Copy the file (as user root) so apt can use the source.
Code: [Sélectionner]
cp siduction_XFCE4_next.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

(4) (a) If you use apt-get, do:
Code: [Sélectionner]
su -

Code: [Sélectionner]
apt-get update

Code: [Sélectionner]
apt-get dist-upgrade

Code: [Sélectionner]
exit

(4) (b) If you use Synaptic, open Synaptic and click Reload. Click Mark All Upgrades. Click Apply.
You can leave the siduction_XFCE4_next repo list enabled. Only XFCE4 packages you have installed will be update/upgraded. In my installation, the following packages were upgraded/installed.
Citer
Upgraded the following packages:
exo-utils (0.6.2-5) to 0.10.2-1
libexo-1-0 (0.6.2-5) to 0.10.2-1
libexo-common (0.6.2-5) to 0.10.2-1
libexo-helpers (0.6.2-5) to 0.10.2-1
libthunarx-2-0 (1.2.3-4+b1) to 1.6.2-1
libxfce4ui-1-0 (4.8.1-1) to 4.10.0-1
libxfce4util-bin (4.8.2-1) to 4.10.0-2
libxfce4util-common (4.8.2-1) to 4.10.0-2
libxfconf-0-2 (4.8.1-1) to 4.10.0-1
thunar (1.2.3-4+b1) to 1.6.2-1
thunar-data (1.2.3-4) to 1.6.2-1
thunar-volman (0.6.1-1) to 0.8.0-1
xfce-keyboard-shortcuts (4.8.1-1) to 4.10.0-1
xfconf (4.8.1-1) to 4.10.0-1
Installed the following packages:
libxfce4util6 (4.10.0-2)

Here's the result:

I had edited the /usr/share/gvfs/mounts/network.mount file because of the extreme wait time for the earlier Thunar version to start after login. The line edited was:
AutoMount=false
I changed the value to true and rebooted. After logging in, I started Thunar version 1.6.2. There was no wait time to speak of, and Network mounts were ready to browse.

It worked for me only when I used the version in 'testing'.

Thanks for the guide!
