We -dont- want thunar (and thus Xfce4 desktop) to depend on a gazillion of gnome libs. It's intended to be a fast & efficient file manager, especially for light desktops. Enabling gnome thumbnailing brings in those libs, so the switch is explicitely disabled. Regards, -- Yves-Alexis

Too bad, but I can understand this. Then I will rebuild thunar everytime a new release is out. (Which doesn’t happen that often anyway.)
