Respect :)
Xfce 4.10 seems to be an issue on all Linux distros. I don't think that
it's Xfce only, but indirectly has to do with GNOME, systemd
compatibility, dependencies, dbus etc.. I'm also missing backwards
compatibility for current Linux applications. If app X isn't good switch
to app Y and drop all your old data.
I started with KDE3, when it was dropped I switched to GNOME2, when this
was dropped, I switched to Xfce and now Xfce became unusable for my
needs too.
On another list I wrote, that nowadays startup only takes 3 seconds, but
to open an email does take 30 seconds. Ok, ok, startup still takes a
little bit longer and to open an email is still a little bit faster, but
it does describes a little bit what happens on my machine.
YMMV,
Ralf
