Exo 0.12.4 Released
What’s New?
General
- Exo once again uses the same thumbnail directories as other applications (Xfce #14799), resulting in reduced disk usage.
- Where everything else moved to ~/.cache/thumbnails quite some time ago, Exo continued to use ~/.thumbnails. Enjoy all the extra disk space!
Bug Fixes
- ExoCellRendererIcon: Fix highlight rendering with GTK 3 (Xfce #14971)
- ExoIconView: Fix search popup placement (Xfce #14994)
- Additionally, a long-standing bug where the type-ahead search widget would be drawn partially off the screen for maximized windows, has been fixed!

4.14 Roadmap Updates
The Xfce development team has worked on tidying up the Xfce 4.14 roadmap over the last few days. Statuses have been updated, pending work has been moved to the top of each section, and completion percents have been adjusted to better reflect each project’s progress. With these updates, we can now see that…
Xfce 4.14 is now approximately 83% complete.
Of course, we need all the help we can get to get this milestone out the door. Check out the Xfce Contribute page to find out how you can help.
What’s Next?
With the 18.10 release now behind us, and the 19.04 cycle starting today, it’s time to get back to work! No release goals have been determined yet, so stay tuned to the Xubuntu Development mailing list for updates about Xubuntu 19.04 “Disco Dingo” development.
