1. Debian packaging of xfce4

This is probably really dull for anyone except SimonHuggins and to an extent DanielSilverstone.

xfce4 build order with build-depends:

• gtk2-engines-xfce - only gtk

• libxfce4util - Everything for this was installed on the 19th

  • libxfcegui4 - needs libxfce4util (of same version) - Uploaded 19th to hit debian 20th

  • libxfce4mcs - needs libxfce4util (of same version) - Uploaded 19th to hit debian 20th

    • xfce-mcs-manager - needs libxfce4mcs, libxfcegui4

      • xfce-mcs-plugins - needs xfce-mcs-manager
      • xfce4-iconbox - needs xfce-mcs-manager
      • xfce4-utils - needs xfce-mcs-manager
      • xfdesktop4 - needs xfce-mcs-manager
      • xffm4 - needs xfce-mcs-manager
      • xfprint4 - needs xfce-mcs-manager
      • xfcalendar - needs xfce-mcs-manager
      • xfwm4 - needs xfce-mcs-manager

      • xfce4-panel - needs xfce-mcs-manager

        • xfce4-mixer - needs xfce4-panel
        • xfce4-systray - needs xfce4-panel
        • xfce4-themes - needs xfce4-panel
        • xfce4-toys - needs xfce4-panel
        • xfce4-trigger-launcher - needs xfce4-panel

Because buildd's are broken and don't check build-depends and do dep-wait stuff automagically the plan to get this into unstable is to upload in 5 stages (yes, 5 *sigh*) with the stuff in bold with urgency=high. (Although the first stage is almost complete)

2. Bugs

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=xfce4,libxfcegui4,libxfce4mcs,libxfce4util,xfce-mcs-manager,xfce-mcs-plugins,xfw4m,xffm4,xfdesktop4,xfce4-panel,xfce4-iconbox,xfce4-utils,xfprint4,xfcalendar,xfce4-mixer,xfce4-themes,xfce4-systray,xfce4-toys,xfce4-trigger-launcher

Need to fix:

• session stuff
• include startxfce and the xinitrc
• menu stuff
• manpages referring to wrong dir.
