====== Installing on Gentoo ======
- For all Gentoo users that want to use and test new releases of Thunar and Xfce4 there exist easy solution. Gentoo developers prepared a set of ebuilds that could be used, additionally there exist an unofficial package with all xfce4-4.4.0_beta1 ebuilds.

Gentoo developers prepared a set of ebuilds that could be used, additionally there exist an unofficial package with all xfce4-4.4.0_beta1 ebuilds. So it is Your choice what ebuilds to use, here are instructions how to use them both:
- To have any application included in new beta release of Xfce You have to follow only these few steps.
+ - If You want use Portage ebuilds you have to only use **emerge --sync** command. All packages are hard masked and and use unstable keywords. List of all packages can be found in ///usr/portage/profiles/package.mask//, You can copy suitable content from this file. Instructions
- - I've created a set of ebuilds that could be used to install all needed packages of xfce4-4.4.0_beta1. To get them go to [[http://dev.gentoo.org/~moloh/ebuilds/|this]] site and download xfce4-4.4.0_beta1.tar.gz file.

- Next step include creation of portage overlay, this procedure is explained in [[http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing_3rd_Party_Ebuilds|this]] howto and [[http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/2006.0/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=5|chapter]] of Gentoo Handbook. I assume that overlay was created in /usr/local/portage.
- Last part include extraction of archive into this location. All needed files are there, ebuilds, checksums and specific layout are already present in the archive. Now You have only unmask ~x86 keyword (instructions how to do it can be found [[http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/2006.0/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=3|here]], in Gentoo Handbook), and use **emerge xfce4** command. If You want install thunar only, instead of <del>**emerge xfce4**</del> use **emerge thunar**. It will work with previous, stable release of xfce4.
Notes:
* These ebuild heve only ~x86 keywords.
* No debug options are set (no USE="debug")
* No documentation (almost) installation
* Gentoo developers responsible for maintaining xfce packages already have all these ebuilds, i know they prepare an official release that would be in Portage tree soon.
