Xfce-funklor ->xfwm crash

[Ric]

Olivier:

Thanks.
However, no end user is going to know that. I didn't know where Xfce-funklor
originated(until now) . It is in the Settings Mangler/UI  list and therefore
should just work.  If there are incompatible themes, they should not be in the
list that is produced by Settings Manager/User Interface, IMHO. Perhaps a
little more control on what gets placed in that list is warranted ?

Thought for today:
Do not take yourself too seriously.  Nobody else does. ;)
