Hello,
Unfortunately there were a few packages of Xfce 4.18 that recently
made into X11:xfce and Factory, causing a partial upgrade. Nothing
seems to have broken so far and we will send the remaining packages
asap. If you notice issues please do report them, and if necessary we
may consider reverting back to 4.16.
Xfce 4.18 is currently being packaged and staged in
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:xfce:next/. If you wish to
contribute to the upgrade effort, it is very much appreciated, and you
can send SRs there instead of X11:xfce.
Thanks,
Maurizio

Sorry I left this part out… of course help is welcome and thank you! If it
makes more sense to use Next as staging ground I can send what i have done
so far there first

Hi there,
you probably all know this:
<https://alexxcons.github.io/blogpost_8.html>
My question is how will we address this? Is anybody already working on
providing this for Leap 15.4 and Tumbleweed? I'd like to offer to help
with this, but before I'll be going to copy the whole project and start
working on it myself, I thought I'd rather ask here... Wouldn't
X11:xfce:next be a perfect playground for it?
TIA, cheers.

Bug ID: 1201074
Summary: Greybird and Greybird-geeko themes need newer sassc
version
Classification: openSUSE
Product: openSUSE Distribution
Version: Leap 15.4
Hardware: Other
OS: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Xfce
Assignee: bnc-team-xfce(a)forge.provo.novell.com
Reporter: maurizio.galli(a)suse.com
QA Contact: qa-bugs(a)suse.de
Found By: ---
Blocker: ---
Newer versions of themes Greybird and Greybird-geeko (default with openSUSE
Xfce) fail to build with current sassc version 3.5.0. The errors are resolved
with version 3.6.2 in Factory.
I'd like to update sassc in openSUSE Leap 15.4 to 3.6.2 to match current
Factory.

@maurizio:
OK, well, this is Leap 15.5 XFCE, whether the XFCE is relevant or not is
another story . . . . I have several rolling tumbleweed based systems and no
issues there on the same machine . . . . '12 cMP i7 4core
@stefan s:
Yes, in the long history of using XFCE, back to approx '07 or earlier, there
has been issues of GUI "freezing" . . . in PPC based systems, etc. This is
longer than 1 minute AND can not get to a TTY from with the freeze . . . .

Things I have seen in the past:
Updates of font packages cause the X server to basically stall for quite some
time, especially (this is a guess) on older/slower CPUs and graphics adapters.
This lead to display "hangs" of about a minute without content updates, don't
remember if the mouse pointer still moved. A text console login showed, that
the xorg processes were consuming lots of CPU.
AFAIR the update process continued in the background, it was just no progress
visible on the desktop.
I have not noticed this in recent times, but I'm now using a slightly newer /
faster machine (only 10 years old core i5-3320M Thinkpad 430 ;-) instead of the
old one before (13 years old core2 duo ulv Thinkpad x200s), and maybe now it is
just the occasional "10 seconds hang" and no longer the "almost one minute
hang" and I just don't notice it anymore.
So especially if this is an "older" machine where this happens, just waiting
longer for it to finish would be my first option.
In order to debug this, I would have a ready-logged-in text console handy and
in case the GUI hangs would check if the last installed packages (should be
visible in journal or with "rpm -qa --last|head" are font packages indeed.
I'm not sure who is "to blame" for this issue, if it is the X server
dynamically reloading the changed fonts or the graphics toolkits, but that's a
secondary question, once you find out it is actually the same problem I was
seeing.

Tumbleweed Xfce is fine for me and I am not able to reproduce the issue.
Unfortunately I don't have a chance to test Leap 15.5 on baremetal at the
moment

Problem happened again this morning in Leap 15.5 . . . running "sudo
update-bootloader" . . . takes several minutes to return cursor, not actually
updating grub and then cursor box is showing as a rectangle . . . and mouse can
mouse around, but clicking on stuff is non-responsive . . . .
Had to shut down using power button . . . and now back in Leap . . . to type
this email.

Maybe the XFCE maintainers can help to figure out what slows down XFCE so
badly.
