Closing thunar. There were no error messages when I was actually working with
it. So it seems to be just a minor bug since I actually could achieve with
thunar what I wanted. Maybe it is something short before closing thunar.

$ pkexec thunar

Well, with pkexec the bug shows up earlier: before I did anything with Thunar,
but after I have entered the administrator's password. But then no error
message is shown, when I close Thunar ... strange! And the bug has another
number.

Where do I get Thunar 1.8 without disturbing everything else in the system?
Currently I still use Xubuntu 16.04.6 LTS, currently with kernel
4.4.0-154-generic x86_64.
