You should try the latest version of Krusader, 2.6.0 (2.5.0 should also work fine).

Have to compile version 2.6
It is stated that ubuntu uses version 2.5, but mine is 2.4
At launchpad I found a so claimed untrusted source:
http://i.imgur.com/56R8i8X.png

However the version description varies.
And it is stated that it has root privilege.
Does this mean this version has root privileges all the time or just in case?

We support a root mode - if the user invokes it. By default Krusader is started with limited user privileges (of course).
I can't say anything about those Ubuntu packages. There are official packages for 2.5.0 in Debian Sid.

Now I know what went wrong when installing the new version:

- on the ubuntu launchpad page it is stated that ubuntu can have krusader 2.5
- on the krusader launchpad page the version in corresponding with the distros is stated: version on my system correspond with the ubuntu lts version. This is correct.
- still the gnome-install screen where it is stated that the version is 2.4 when you install versions 2.5 and 2.6. This is not correct.

- when you press launch at the install program gnome-software the program is launched with root privileges.
- when you start it with the menu icon instead it launches without root privileges.
(must say initially I had to make a menu item, don't know if it is also not made automatically with version 2.5 and 2.6)

Version 2.6 works now but initially don't see major changes.
For example: Still can not make changes to the bookmarks.
Did an uninstall before installing the new version. Settings are kept, which is good, but have they be removed also?
Where are the settings located? (Couldn't find them in .config and a export button would be nice)


Anyway Krusader is a useful file mananger
and with some little help it could be great.

Version 2.6 works now but initially don't see major changes.

Navigation bar has breadcrumb view, e.g.

For example: Still can not make changes to the bookmarks.

You have to install KBookmarks, its an optional dependency.

Did an uninstall before installing the new version. Settings are kept, which is good, but have they be removed also?

No.

Where are the settings located? (Couldn't find them in .config and a export button would be nice)

Main configuration file is .config/krusaderrc

* Navigation bar has breadcrumb view, e.g.

Nope, fresh install did not show this in my case. Also couldn't find a setting when quickly searching for it.

*You have to install KBookmarks, its an optional dependency.

Thanks for the clarification. Will leave it as vanilla.

*Main configuration file is .config/krusaderrc

Nope, when quickly searching for it by search and manually looking for it it didn't show up
(It is a handy thing that you can file search with krusader. However it is way too slow. Catfish is lightning fast in comparison.)

But I finally did find it in ...

.kde/share/config

>
I can go on about bugs/complains/tips/future requests/feedback ...

but ...

... you can make this threat closed

Synchronization component fixed in 2.6? Also, keyboard shortcut for switching tabs is not working anymore?

I would suggest this enhancement: an option, when you syncro two folders, to see if there are files with the same creation date and the same size, but (only) different names, so that you could rename the destination folder files, without replacing them. It would be useful for big files, such as the video ones.
I have a script that do this. So implement it in Krusader should be possible (even maybe difficult, I don't know).
