I can do this in 2022 *** Bug 2053989 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Just came by to say I enthusiastically urge you to add xfce. It's perfect for a business desktop. Adding my voice to the interest in this. Thanks for the input Thomas and Pat. I will do this in the coming weeks. Thanks Mukundan! Lack of XFCE - and time - are the only things preventing me from migraining to CS9. Which I need to do before FC34 EOLs. :) Many thanks, Mukundan! I sure do appreciate it! I can't wait to adopt RHEL9 with xfce! I try to use RHEL wherever I can (as opposed to CentOS or Fedora), so having my favorite DE on RHEL will be perfect. Using this mock chroot: centos-stream+epel-9-x86_64 grabbed the Xfce4 group SRPM set from fc35 and built it for el9. Screenshot: http://199.249.188.45/stream9/al9beta-xfce4-apr22.png I have just filed requests for epel9 branch. I will start building the packages in the coming days. I will start building this soon. Branches are created. Very good news ! thanks for the effort ! *** Bug 2084625 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I have finally built most of the core packages. terminal, ristretto and a bunch of plugins remain. Assuming no issues, I expect xfce 4.16 to be available for testing within a week. Sorry about the delay. I'm interested in this for sure. FEDORA-EPEL-2022-5fe886dfa9 has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 9. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2022-5fe886dfa9 alright folks, this is done. mousepad did not build and I need to figure out what's going on. Other than that, Xfce should work as well as it does on Fedora. I tested these builds on RHEL 9 with EPEL enabled and did not notice any issues or odd behavior. the karma for stable is high and time for stable is long - this is intentional. test and provide feedback please. FEDORA-EPEL-2022-5fe886dfa9 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 9 testing repository. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2022-5fe886dfa9 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. *** Bug 2093286 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 2093720 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Is there a comps.xml bug for EPEL9 xfce desktop group? (In reply to Pat Riehecky from comment #20) > Is there a comps.xml bug for EPEL9 xfce desktop group? there isn't one. I did not have time to update comps earlier. Now, there is PR for comps. https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/pull-request/743 Once merged, it should be possible to install xfce base packages as a group. the update is on its way to stable. xfce is now in comps. FEDORA-EPEL-2022-5fe886dfa9 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 9 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. |
