Hi Alex,

Thanks for the reply.

I looked into making a backtrace in Manjaro (Arch), and it doesn't look easy -
so I'm not sure I want to get into that.

Sorry about that (I used to be a C developer too), you were happy to help and
I'm letting you down.

If there is anything else we can do, I'm happy to test out any other options.

Like - do you know what xfce-terminal is doing when it opens, that could cause
Thunar to switch its side pannel to /lib/ao ?

I retracted the part about it matters where Thunar was opened from, it doesn't.

But I am running Cairo-dock and Compiz.

If I login as root, then it is a plain xfce desktop. Thunar does not crash, but
neither does it try to switch the side panels' directory.

Yours,
John.
