FS#11 - XFE menu's text encoding

The text in menu of XFE is not right encoded (with the french menu). For exemple “Propriété” is “Propri€Â©t€Â©”.

If I created a file or rename it i have the same problem.

Its not posible to fix the problem since we have the version 1.4 of libfox, it not supports UTF-8, not exist on debian unstable or experimental, and the ubuntu repositories has a oldest verstion of libfox than the ETCH version... Well, i have tried to package it, but after to make this and install on my system, xfe not compile with this version...

What we make now then ? I have emailed the maintainer of libfox on debian asking for the version 1.6

One solution is to delete XFE from Elive and use *only* evidence (it don’t crash more now thanks to Katai)

There is nothing particular stopping libfox1.6 from getting into Debian,
apart from my spare spare time ;) Currently I have to rebuild my system
first, upgrading to Linux 2.6.18-rc1 ate my system partitions :(

It don’t crash but is not very usable now (on the elive 0.5) you can’t mouve a file for exemple (he make a copy). I like have XFE to manage my file...

Perhaps change XFE to another file manager, perhaps http://emelfm2.net/emelFM2 ... juste a sugestion ....

or http://thunar.xfce.org/index.html but is not ready yet.

Ok, i have look thunar and its a perfect candidate, very good options, not big, nice features, and a look vision to the future, you can install it actually on your Elive via apt-get...

I open then a task for feature request... start using thunar normally, make a look to all the posible things, and look if any thing looks bad and write all the things to needs to are customized

I hope it for Elive-0.6 (and their first beta’s)
