I'm kinda regretting having deleted my "thunar1.6.11-proposed" PPA: by enabling the "proposed" repository, the average user may accidentally execute something like "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and then upgrade not only Thunar but his/her ***entire system*** with all the testing/proposed packages, which may be dangerous or at least not desireable as a "general rule".

Installing only Thunar packages from a separate PPA like my (now deleted) "thunar1.6.11-proposed" was a "safer" approach.

Anyway... Instead of creating another "proposed" PPA, I decided to update the text/description at my "thunar1.6.10-fix" PPA hosted at

https://launchpad.net/~yuri-sucupira/+archive/ubuntu/thunar1.6.10-fix

...with instructions on how to:
(1) Enable the "proposed" PPA;
(2) Upgrade ***only*** Thunar; and
(3) Then disable the "proposed" PPA, for the sake of safety/stability.
