@Jerry, Gold_FingerReference: reply #44 on removing xarchiver.desktopIn addition to thisCode: [Select]rm -rf ~/.local/share/applications/xarchiver.desktopI also had to remove the file from hereCode: [Select]rm /etc/skel/.local/share/applications/xarchiver.desktop
rm -rf ~/.local/share/applications/xarchiver.desktop
rm /etc/skel/.local/share/applications/xarchiver.desktop
The current build of LL 2.2 (unreleased) has File Roller included so in the next release be it Final or Beta 2, File Roller will be included. This is the same for other inclusions/exclusions until the next public release.
Quick question. When you make additions like this, do you then update the beta iso file for LL2.2 with the change? Reason I ask is because I downloaded it 1-2 days ago, but haven't had chance to test yet. If it's changed since then, I'll just download it again before testing.
sudo apt-get remove xarchiver && sudo apt-get install file-roller -y
File roller has just been added to LL 2.2. Xarchiver has been removed. After much testing, file-roller seems superior, handles large archives well, is no impact on performance, just as easy to use and plays nice with Thunar.

File-roller actually opened a tar bar and opens zip files in seconds. Next replaced Image Viewer with Mirage...the difference is day and nite. Am testing Midori just now and once my comfort level is satisfied Chromium will be toast as well. Strange how FF and Chrome don't react the same for me on this side...they're a whole lot slower,freeze and crash all the time. Midori is very fast and now can follow tutorials with gimp open. Not sure if this is what you're looking for...just my 2 cents.+1000 for file-rollerXarchiver is garbage honestly. It has issues with a lot of files. I have some .lha files and it will not open them, rar files have issues, some zips. I replaced Xarchiver with file-roller a long time ago. Just forgot that I did

I've used Deja Dup in the past, but currently am using Timeshift for OS snapshots and Back-In-Time for user files.
UPDATE: We're edging closer to a first beta release. I was rather apprehensive about what effect adding new software had on performance and memory usage ootb. I'm please to report the following after the latest beta build...
DejaDup... Does anyone know exactly what folders & files it backs up?
