Lubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail

It has landed! We have new release, the Raring Ringtail. There’re lots of changes:

  • New version of pcmanfm / libfm (1.1.0) including a built-in search utility.
  • Artwork improvements, including new wallpapers, community wallpapers, new icons…
  • Removing catfish, since pcmanfm has its own search utility
  • Fix a very old bug causing gnome-mplayer to crash with some CPU (P4)
  • Several fixes for the image viewer gpicview

You can download it while it’s hot, either 32bit or AMD64 versions (these are Torrent files, look here for more downloads). Enjoy!
