- | Installation | + | Que se passe-t-il dans le monde de Xubuntu aujourd’hui ? La publication la plus récente, Xubuntu 22.10, sortie le 20 octobre 2022, nous donne un aperçu des priorités des développeurs pour le nouveau cycle de versions. Xubuntu 22.10 est la première publication intérimaire du cycle et sera suivie par deux autres versions intérimaires et, enfin, par la prochaine version à support à long terme en avril 2024. |

I picked up Xubuntu 22.10 via BitTorrent from the official source. This download is 2.8 GB in size, which is 500 MB or 18% bigger than the last release for reasons that are not totally clear. All of the Ubuntu family of Linux distributions have been growing in size in the last few releases, so it seems to be an ecosystem-wide phenomena. In comparison, the mainstream Ubuntu 22.10 release is now up to 3.8 GB. | I picked up Xubuntu 22.10 via BitTorrent from the official source.

Xubuntu 22.10 uses the Xfce 4.16 desktop, with a few components from 4.17, like Xfce4 Panel 4.17.0. The 4.17 components are a preview for testing for the next big Xfce release, which will be 4.18.

- | Conclusions | + | Le gestionnaire de fichiers Thunar 4.19.9 a ajouté des fonctions de recherche natives, dont la recherche récursive dans les dossiers. Je ne suis pas certain des raisons pour continuer aujourd’hui à inclure l’application autonome de recherche sur le bureau Catfish 4.16.4, mais elle a été repensé et, une fois que les fichiers sont trouvés, ils peuvent être ouverts directement à partir de Catfish dans une sélection d’applications. |
+ | |||
+ | Xubuntu 22.10 utilise toujours PulseAudio comme contrôleur audio, bien que Ubuntu 22.10 et Kubuntu 22.10 aient pris PipeWire à la place. Xubuntu 21.10 avait précédemment introduit l’utilisation de PipeWire en tant que programme adjoint à PulseAudio, mais ce n’est plus installé dans Xubuntu 22.10. Ce sera intéressant de voir si Xubuntu et les autres saveurs d’Ubuntu vont suivre l’exemple d’Ubuntu et changer complètement pour PipeWire. La dernière version du Xfce Audio Plugin, qui est inclus, a un nouvel indicateur qui le montre quand une application enregistre de l’audio et fournit une notification chaque fois que le niveau du volume du microphone est changé. Étant donné le travail investi dans ce greffon personnalisé de Xfce, les développeurs de Xubuntu hésitent peut-être à basculer vers PipeWire. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Il y a d’autres petits changements dans de nombreux composants de Xfce et une liste complète est disponible dans les notes de version de la 22.10. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Conclusions | ||
Xubuntu 22.10 is a really solid release, with nothing bad to report. If the large number of small tweaks is any indication of how the rest of the release cycle will proceed, it looks like Xubuntu fans will be happy with the LTS results in April, 2024. Most of the Xubuntu users I know really like the distribution the way it is, and generally don’t see the need for major changes. | Xubuntu 22.10 is a really solid release, with nothing bad to report.
