Thunar 0.3.2 and libexo 0.3.1.8 beta2 releases

I just released Thunar-0.3.2beta2 and libexo-0.3.1.2beta2 as part of Xfce 4.4BETA2, which will be released tomorrow. Separate tarballs are provided for users of Xfce 4.2.x that don’t want to upgrade yet, and users of other desktop environments. As suggested by the name, it is still a beta release and it is thereby considered to be more or less stable in what it does, but it is not yet a final version.

You will need atleast libxfce4util 4.2.2, GTK+ 2.6.4, shared-mime-info 0.15 and desktop-file-utils 0.10 to build and run Thunar. In addition Gamin or FAM are highly recommended to enable file system monitoring in Thunar. For HAL support on Linux, the libhal-storage-devel package is required (0.5.0 or above). The README file contains a complete list of dependencies and optional packages.

thunar-archive-plugin 0.2.0

This is a major release, which introduces a generic scripting interface for archivers, so the plugin can now be used with basicly every archive manager that supports the required command line parameters. Support for File Roller (the GNOME archive manager) and Ark (the KDE archive manager) is builtin. Xarchiver will include support for the archive plugin in the next release. It depends on Thunar 0.2.2 or above.
