As per the PPA, you need to enable 4.10 PPA for 4.12
- ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.10
- ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12
Do
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.10
add-apt-repository ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12
sudo apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade # if you have already installed xfce4
otherwise
sudo apt-get install xfce4
NOTE: make sure
python-software-properties
andsoftware-properties-common
are installed.

Looking at the 4.12 ppa, it appears that the latest 4.12 packages are not available there yet. That's why you didn't get it. Sep 11, 2013 at 4:58
