Boxes 3.8.3



We are pleased to announce a new stable bugfix release of Boxes.

Changes since 3.8.2:

- Fix non-express installation of Windows XP and 7.
- Fix regression in setup->review->setup->review wizard transition.
- Fix animations against Clutter 1.16.
- Fix sorting of boxes that were never accessed.
- Handle locales with '.UTF-8' suffix and hence fix Fedora 19 express
  installation against such locales.
- Show display overlay toolbar until mouse moves so that user doesn't miss it.
- Ensure display toolbar is visible when mouse can be grabbed.
- Allow changing URI of non-connected remote displays.
- Make sure newly created VMs are marked as used recently so that VM already
  appears before all other boxes rather than jumping to that position when user
  launches it.
- Don't automatically jump to next page in wizard on express install untoggled.
- Mark two user visible strings for translation.
- Never make the 'Express Install' label in wizard, insensitive.
- Added/updated/fixed translations:
  - Hebrew
  - Japanese
  - Norwegian bokmål
  - Slovenian
  - Spanish
