Dear All, I would like to announce a cleanup / changes in the Xfce Pattern for Tumbleweed and the upcoming Leap 15.1 release. Leap 15.1 release is an important one for openSUSE-Xfce because it will have a new look (already set in Tumbleweed), will have updated software such as Thunar 1.8, and many bug fixes. Therefore it is a good opportunity to make the default Xfce installation lean and mean: - remove gnome-games (no real purpose having it installed by default) - remove pidgin (except for IRC, the protocols supported are no longer very popular. Users today mostly use Matrix, Telegram, Discord which are not properly supported by Pidgin). - remove sound-juicer (not necessary as default. Modern Laptops don't even have a CD/DVD drive anymore) - remove google-droid-fonts (redundant dependency already recommended by patterns-fonts-fonts_opt) - midori-branding-openSUSE (obsolete) - removed moonlight-plugin (obsolete) - add blueberry (simple bluetooth management applet that sits in the systray) - add hexchat (many conversations/meetings for openSUSE development happen in IRC so a good client by default is important) Please note that removing software from the Xfce Pattern doesn't mean that it will no longer be available. The packages will still be in the official repos for users to install directly. Have fun :-) Maurizio Galli (MauG) Xfce Team https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Xfce -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+owner@opensuse.org
