Hi,
Is anyone here running XFCE desktop on CentOS 8? If so, how did you
install it?
I just tried to install it from EPEL and this is what I got:
# dnf group install Xfce

No match for group package "NetworkManager-gnome"
Hi Simon,
I'm running XFCE under CentOS 8 as a VM under CentOS 7. I've just had a
quick look and this is what I see (see attachment). You'll need to view
it in a wide terminal.
HTH,
Martin

Thanks Martin, so the "Xfce" group definition in EPEL is obviously broken.
Looks like XFCE doesn't get much love in EL8. Do you or anyone else have
suggestions for a lightweight desktop environment to use on EL8 apart from
XFCE? One which is supported well by EPEL?
Thanks,
Simon

Sorry, I run gdm on Springdale 8 and Alma 8. I'm not doing much work on
any RHEL 8 clone ATM, I prefer the longer support of C7! :-(

I'm also on C7 for the same reason but wanted to see how XFCE is supported
on any EL8 clone for the future.
In the past I've even produced updated XFCE packages but I don't want to
do this in future. Too many other things to do.

I just tried dnf search kmail and it didn't find anything, so I guess that
stuff is simply not there.

I've come to the same conclusion.
For the past couple years, my solution has been to use RHEL clones (CentOS and
