            This package installs icon files into the /usr/share/icons/hicolor hierarchy and desktop
            files into the /usr/share/applications hierarchy. You can
            improve system performance and memory usage by updating
            /usr/share/icons/hicolor/index.theme and
            /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache. To
            perform the update you must have GTK+-2.24.33 or
            GTK+-3.24.30 installed (for the icon cache)
            and desktop-file-utils-0.26 (for
            the desktop cache) and issue the following commands as the
            root user:
          
gtk-update-icon-cache -qtf /usr/share/icons/hicolor && update-desktop-database -q
          --libexecdir=/usr/lib/xfce4: This
          switch fixes the location for the thunar-archive-plugin, so it will
          work if thunar-4.16.8 is installed.
        
          --disable-gtk3: This switch allows
          building against GTK+2 or use --disable-gtk2 to force building against GTK+3 when
          GTK+2 is installed, too.
