Thunar is not showing any thumbnails

I was looking for the gnome-exe-thumbnailer (or similar) package in Fedora 20 (which surprinsingly wasn't in the repos) but I found tumbler-extras, which I installed and almost immediately uninstalled; then Thunar was unable to generate new thumbnails.

I've made everything described here: Why is Thunar not creating and showing thumbnails of images?

I've also made a rollback to just before tumbler-extras was installed, but anything seems to be solving this issue.

I've just found out that this issue is caused by selinux. I've already filed a bug #1058064 on redhat's bugzilla.

On Arch you also need to install ffmpegthumbnailer for Thunar to do thumbs in addition to tumbler. Perhaps looking for the equivalent package in Fedora will do the trick?

Thanks, I've that package installed as well, but the problem is selinux. If I have it on "disabled" mode, thumbnailers work fine, but when on "enforcing" mode, no thumbnails are created at all. I've already reported this on bugzilla. bug #1058064. – arielnmz – 2014-01-26T20:30:30.027

Ok, right on - you're welcome! – headkase – 2014-01-26T21:10:02.227
