[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#315662: xfce4: upgrade lost some settings

[Nick Lewycky]

Package: xfce4
Version: 4.2.2
Severity: normal

Upgrading from the older 4.0.3 (or 4.0.6) to the recently uploaded
caused a few problems. I'm too lazy to sort out which bug belongs
where. Sorry.

1. XFCE4 lost my desktop backdrop. I was using a solid colour.

2. The upgrade changed my window manager theme. Actually it was a
fallback because I had it set to "agualemon" but in the newer version,
it's called "Agualemon" (note the caps).

3. XFCE4 set a splash screen. I had no splash screen.

4. The icon theme has changed and I don't see my old theme in the
list. I believe it was GNOME.

Please fix this for the sarge->etch folks, and add give me my icon
theme back!

Thanks,
Nick Lewycky
