Title: Thunar On Eabi Debian?
Post by: deniscallies on December 10, 2007, 02:33:17 am
I have installed Debian EABI on my SD Card, works fine.      Installed XFCE4, but installation of thunar failed.
There are Dependencies of old thunar-common files. How can i force the installation with synaptic? The "force installation" for this package is not available  

Thanks

Denis

apt-get thunar --force-depends

"command line option --force-depends is not understood"  

I tried "apt-get -f install thunar" with no luck

thank you,

now i have installed thunar, but synaptic marks it for uninstall and says it is a broken package... is there any solution. Has someone installed XFCE4 and thunar on EABI Debian?

 Yes!

I installed xcfe4 and thunar came along with it. No hassles at all. I'm using the 'new' repos' as posted on the wiki and somewhere in this forum: jpmatrix I think.

Just noticed a post which says that xcfe4 is 'broken' at the moment. I installed a few weeks ago so YMMV. It will get fixed though....

Yeah it was fixed at one point, then broke again.  Seems to be a theme here. -lol-
