This meta-port gathers together each of the ports from the Xfce4 Goodies Project and allows them to be easily installed to create a functional desktop environment. Default options include those which do not bring in too many additional dependencies, and are generally recommended for use on a modern Xfce desktop. It also includes ports which are not officially part of the Xfce4 Goodies Project (can not be found at http://goodies.xfce.org/), but are generally recommended for use with Xfce4 on FreeBSD. This goal of this meta-port is to help users get started with Xfce by: 1. Easily installing a sensible list of programs with a single command 2. Find new programs they may be interested in, by reviewing the list of disabled by default options in the port 3. Show people which programs are not recommended for use by the FreeBSD Xfce team (such as obsolete applications) Reviewed by: olivierd (with Xfce hat) Approved by: sbruno (with Xfce hat), mat (mentor) Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D6981

The Xfce Goodies Project includes additional software and artwork that are
|
|
related to the Xfce desktop, but not part of the official release.
|
|
|
|
The Xfce Project itself provides a lightweight desktop environment, which
|
|
includes only the core compoments required for a desktop environment, like a
|
|
window manager, a file manager, a session manager, a panel and a few utilities.
|
|
Additional software packages and plugins to existing software, like the panel
|
|
or the file manager, are provided by the Xfce Goodies Project.
|
|
|
|
This meta-port does not install any software itself - it simply depends on other
|
|
ports which are part of the Xfce Goodies Project, and a few additional ports
|
|
which are not officially part of Goodies, but highly recommended for an Xfce
|
|
desktop environment.
