MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for thunar-gtk2-static-libs [2]: Broken since submission (fails to build). Gtk2 support in Xfce project is EOL since 2019. Not useful to keep. Nothing requires the Gtk2 variant of Thunar, and this is not compatible with downstream dependent plugins. Many Gtk2 based Xfce4 packages fail to build on current Arch Linux, some have already been deleted from AUR, others are pending removal for the same reason. Arch repo carries the current latest stable version of Thunar (which uses Gtk3). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/thunar-gtk2-static-libs/
