Description:
After the upgrade to Xfce 4.8, thunar-archive-plugin does not work. Simply moving the plugin to /usr/lib/thunarx-2 does not work either, suggesting an incompatibility.

Additional info:
Version : 0.2.4-6

$ pacman -Qlq thunar-archive-plugin
/usr/lib/thunarx-1/thunar-archive-plugin.so

Steps to reproduce:
Install thunar-archive-plugin.
Observe how Thunar does not detect it.

this needs to be fixed upstream.

any patch around that applies on the stable release?

Tried latest version. Thunar still doesn't detect the plugin for me. No extract or compress options appear in the context menu.

I don't see thunar-vfs as a needed dependency either.

thunar-archive-plugin 0.2.4-8 seems to work fine here. thunar-vfs is pulled in by the old configure script. no idea if it is needed to archive remote file systems. I'll keep it until a new upstream release changes this. if you can prove that's not needed open a new request.
