Why is xfce4 perpetually in version 4.0.5 for 4.9? This is a very bad
version of xfce4, with ugly icon cropping, modal problems with Opera,
and some other annoying things. I realize that 4.2 will be coming out
some time around November but it would still be very nice to have
4.0.6 in ports/packages. Thank you :-)

4.0.5 was the last version when FreeBSD 4.9 was released. If you
want to install xfce 4.0.6, you must update your ports
collection using cvsup. Refer to online documentation if you
need assistance.

Sorry: I meant 4-stable -- I am on 4.10 anyway not 4.9.

http://www.freebsd.org/ports and http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi
list the 4-stable port as 4.0.5 and the package i get when i do a
pkg_add -r from
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4-stable/Latest
is 4.0.5, leading to my email. I see now that you are right though
that the updated ports have 4.0.6. I was hoping for a binary package
though. Any clue if/when that will happen?

Thanks.

Freshports shows that actual version of xfce4 is 4.0.6.
You can expect a binary package of xfce 4.0.6 coming but I can't
tell you when.
