MTP support by default
by Dridi Boukelmoune 29 Aug '18

Hello Xfce friends, I just installed the Xfce spin on a brand new laptop and ran into a long-forgotten problem I think users should never face: nothing happens when I plug my android device by default. Installing the gvfs-mtp package is enough to help Thunar figure everything out, and given the size of this package I think it should be part of the default installation. Recently I had to resort to using a 2011 laptop and I decided to use the Mate spin to give a try to a DE I hear so many praises about. In terms of polish, Mate is better IMHO and at least the Mate spin comes with MTP support by default. While I very much enjoy Mate, this short 2-month try was not enough to convince me to switch. I just installed the Fedora 28 Xfce and the only thing I have to complain about is MTP support because once again I had to look it up and I think "regular" users would just come to the conclusion that it doesn't work. Thanks again for maintaining my favorite DE in my favorite OS! Dridi
