Install Whisker Menu 1.5.0 In Xubuntu Or Linux Mint Xfce

1. To add the official Whisker Menu PPA and install the application in in Xubuntu 15.04, 14.10, 14.04 or 12.04 / Linux Mint 17.1, 17 or 13, use the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gottcode/gcppa
sudo apt-get update

2. Then, to install/update Whisker Menu in Xubuntu (any version) or Linux Mint 13, use the command below:

sudo apt-get install xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin

sudo apt-get install xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/trusty

If for some reason you want to downgrade to the version available in the official Linux Mint repositories, use "sudo apt-get install xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/rebecca" (or "qiana", depending on your Linux Mint version).

3. And finally, if Whisker Menu was already installed on your system, you'll need to restart the Xfce Panel (or log out and log back in), which can be done by using the following command:

xfce4-panel --restart
