    If Xubuntu is gonna be updated...

    ...sometime this month, why would they push an update to part of Xfce4 from 4.10 to 4.11 now, instead of when Xubuntu 13.10's released?

       What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are: 
        Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version 
        N or O  : keep your currently-installed version 
          D     : show the differences between the versions 
          Z     : start a shell to examine the situation 
     The default action is to keep your current version.

    Not that I mind, per say. Biggest change I've seen so far: the way Xfce does wallpapers. First pic shows the old way in 4.10, the second pic, the new way in 4.11. Pretty neat, eh? Does anyone out there know of any other changes, as everything else seems the same.

    Is it because you're on a ppa? I'm still seeing:
    Code:
    [11:16 AM] ~/Desktop/sort $ apt-cache policy xfdesktop4
    xfdesktop4:
      Installed: 4.10.2-0ubuntu1
      Candidate: 4.10.2-0ubuntu1
      Version table:
     *** 4.10.2-0ubuntu1 0
            500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring/universe i386 Packages
            100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
    [11:26 AM] ~/Desktop/sort $
    I don't have a ppa installed.

    Re: If Xubuntu is gonna be updated...

    What PPA did you use to get this? I have the 4.10 PPA in place and today got a 4.11 update for the terminal package, only; however nothing changed for the rest of the XFCE installation.
    Code:
    jk@mehitabel:~$ apt-cache policy xfdesktop4
    xfdesktop4:
      Installed: 4.10.2-0ubuntu1~ppa0.12.04.1
      Candidate: 4.10.2-0ubuntu1~ppa0.12.04.1
      Version table:
     *** 4.10.2-0ubuntu1~ppa0.12.04.1 0
            500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.10/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages
            100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
         4.8.3-2ubuntu7 0

    Re: If Xubuntu is gonna be updated...

    I think it might be this one: ht tp://ppa.launchpad.net/xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12/ubuntu
    (deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12/ubuntu raring main)
    Forgot I had added it I guess.

    Also, just where is the PPA list stored? Been looking in /var/log, but can't seem to find where the PPA list's located. Whoops, They are stored in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
