It appears that Thunar is now running on the somewhat dated 4.16 in Bodhi 7.0. Research indicates that the packages Thunar 4.17 requires are not available on the Ubuntu version on which Bodhi 7.0 is based. The functionality that we're looking for includes - the ability to make custom shortcuts in the sidepane
- the ability to restore open folders on startup
If memory serves right these components worked well in Thunar on Bodhi prior to 7.0. We are otherwise very happy with Thunar and absolutely delighted with Bodhi. Any suggestions on how to include these functionalities in Thunar with Bodhi 7.0? |

Bodhi 6.0 had version 1.8.14 but also had version 4.17.5 in the BL6 testing repo. And you are right BL7 has version 4.16. But Bodhi is based on a Ubuntu LTS release and LTS releases are known to have somewhat dated packages, it is not a rolling release. The latest stable release of Thunar appears to be version 4.18.7. For the record, Debian Bookworm has version 4.18.4 (Sid, however, has the latest version).
I can look and see how feasible updating Thunar in BL7 would be and if doable (without backporting a ton of other pkgs) maybe place it in the BL7 testing repo. Just give me a few days it is not an urgent request and other tasks currently have priority. Unless of course someone else wants to do it.
